ABS/DSC system faults or system statuses are indicated in the instrument cluster with the aid of the ABS safety lamp and the multifunction lamp.
The ABS safety lamp and the multifunction lamp light as from ignition lock position 2. If the entire system is free of faults, both lamps go out after approx. 2 seconds (lamp check).
If the safety circuit detects a fault in the ABS subsystem, the entire system, i.e. the ABS and DSC subsystems, is switched off (ABS safety lamp and multifunction lamp light). If the fault no longer occurs during the next starting procedure both lamps go out again after the lamp check.
If the safety circuit detects a fault in the DSC subsystem, dependent on the type of fault, either the entire system or only the DSC subsystem is switched off (ABS safety lamp and/or multifunction lamp lights).
The multifunction lamp lights continuously if the DSC subsystem is switched off with the DSC passive button.
The multifunction lamp flashing while driving (frequency approx. 3 Hz) indicates to the driver that the DSC control is defective.
Note
The ABS safety lamp and the multifunction lamp light during diagnosis (communication with the diagnosis and information system).
