there is a blind spot in which objects cannot be

physical limits that apply to all forms of ultra-

Your BMW is equipped with an extended array
of systems designed to enhance and maintain
vehicle stability under extreme conditions.
of systems designed to enhance and maintain

ABS Antilock Brake System
ABS prevents the wheels from locking during
braking. Safe steering response is maintained
even during hard braking. This increases active
driving safety.
ABS is operational every time you start the
engine. For information on safe braking, refer to

This system provides further enhancements to
vehicle stability and steering response when
braking while cornering or when braking during
a lane change.

DBC Dynamic Brake Control
When you apply the brakes rapidly, this system
automatically produces the maximum braking
force boost and thus helps to achieve the short-
est possible braking distance during panic
stops. This system exploits all of the benefits
provided by ABS.
