Instruments and controls Driving systems Operation Driving Instrument cluster display Practical hints Car care Technical data Index 256 Only when all function indicator lamps (5) have gone out, the ABS malfunction indicator lamp and the ESP warning lamp in the instrument cluster go out and the messages "ESP NOT ACTIVE - LOCK ACTIVE", "BAS NOT AVAILABLE - LOCK ACTIVE" and "ABS NOT ACTIVE - LOCK ACTIVE" in the multifunction display disappear. Now the message "ESP - NOT AVAILABLE" appears in the multifunction display and the ESP warning lamp comes on. That means the ESP, BAS and ABS functions are not active yet. To activate the systems again drive for 3 seconds with a constant drive behavior. Note: If the function lamps do not go out when the differential locks are disengaged, make minor changes to the vehicles direction. Methods to disengage differential locks There are two different methods to disengage differential locks: • Disengage differential locks in reverse order. When the rear axle differential lock is disengaged, the front axle differential lock is automatically disengaged with it. Briefly press the previously activated switches for the differential lock. The correspondending engagement indicator lamp (4) goes out. • If the transfer case differential lock is disengaged, all other differential locks are automatically disengaged. Briefly press the switch (1) for the transfer case differential lock. The engagement indicator lamps (4) go out. The function indicator lamp (5) goes out when the disengagement procedure has been completed.
