Deactivating DSC and DTC
Press and hold down the DSC button 
until the telltale light and the yellow 
brake warning light come on, but do not 
wait more than 10 seconds before 
releasing the button.
Under these circumstances no stability- 
or traction-improving manipulation of 
engine or brakes takes place.
In order to maintain maximum 
driving stability, you should drive 
with the DSC system activated when-
ever possible.

Reactivating DSC
Briefly press the button a second time; 
the telltale light or lights go out. DTC is 
deactivated.
Not even DSC can overcome the 
laws of physics. The driver is 
always responsible for matching his or 
her style of driving to the prevailing 
conditions. Avoid taking any risks on 
account of the additional safety 
afforded by this system.
When DTC is in ready mode DSC is 
deactivated and DTC contributes to a 
limited extent to stabilising the car.
Make no modifications to the DSC sys-
tem. All work on the DSC should be 
entrusted only to skilled, authorised 
personnel.
