Overview

ASC+T

The concept

This systems enhances driving stability
and traction, especially when you are
just starting off, accelerating or in
curves.
ASC+T recognizes the danger present
in traction loss and will increase driving
stability and traction by reducing the
engine's output, and if necessary, by
applying the brakes to the rear wheels.

ASC+T is available as soon as the
engine starts up.

Indicator lamp

The indicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster goes out shortly
after you switch on the ignition.

Refer to pages

and

Indicator lamp flashes:
ASC+T controls the drive and braking
forces.

If the indicator lamp fails to go out after
the engine is started, or if it comes on
during normal driving and stays on:
There is a system malfunction or the
system was deactivated with the
button. Consequently, interventions to
increase driving stability (as described
in the preceding column) are not avail-
able. You can still drive the vehicle
perfectly well without ASC+T.
Please consult your BMW center in the
event of a fault, refer to pages

and

Deactivate the ASC+T

Press the button; the indicator lamp
comes on and stays on.

The illustration shows the arrangement
of the buttons if the vehicle is fully
equipped. This may vary, depending on
the equipment actually installed.

In the following rare situations, it may
be effective to deactivate the ASC+T
for a brief period:

When rocking the vehicle or starting
off in deep snow or on loose
surfaces.

When driving with snow chains.

To maintain vehicle stability,
always drive with the ASC+T

activated whenever possible.
