If

the

[J

indicator

light

only stays

on

for

a

short

time,

you

may

continue

driving.

All

drive

(quattro)

Applies

to:

vehicles

with

all

wheel

drive

The

all-wheel

drive

system

distributes

the

driving

power

variably

to

the

front

and

rear axle

to

im-

prove

the

driving

characteristics.

It

works

togeth-

er

with

selective

wheel

torque

control,

which

can

activate

when

driving

through

curves

page

The

all-wheel

drive

system

is

designed

for

high

motor

power.

Your

vehicle

is

exceptionally

power-

ful

and

has

excellent

driving

characteristics

both

under

normal

driving

conditions

and

on

snow

and

ice.

Always

read

and

follow

safety

precautions

oh.

—Even

in

vehicles

with

all

wheel

drive,

you

should

adapt

your

driving

style

to

the

cur-

rent

road

and

traffic

conditions

to

reduce

the

risk

of

an

accident.

—The

braking

ability

of

your

vehicle

is

limited

to

the

traction

of

the

wheels.

In

this

way,

it

is

not

different

from

a

two

wheel

drive

vehi-

cle.

Do not

drive

too

fast

because

this

in-

creases

the

risk of

an

accident.

—Note

that

on

wet

streets,

the

front

wheels

can

“hydroplane”

if

driving

at

speeds

that

are

too

high.

Unlike

front

wheel

drive

vehicles,

the

motor

RPM

does

not

increase

suddenly

when

the

vehicle

begins

hydro-

planing.

Adapt

your

speed

to

the

road

condi-

tions

to

reduce

the

risk of

an

accident.

Electronic

Stabilization

Control

Electronic

Stabilization

Control

(ESC)

supports

driver

safety.

It

reduces

the

risk

of

slipping

and

improves

driving

stability.

ESC

detects

critical

sit-

uations,

such

oversteering

and

understeering

of

the

vehicle,

the

drive

wheels

spinning,

or

the

risk

of

the

vehicle

tipping.

The

brakes

are

applied

or

the

motor

torque

is

re-

duced

in

order

to

stabilize

the

vehicle.

The

following

stabilization

functions

are

inte-

grated

into

the

ESC,

among

others:

Anti-lock

Braking

System

(ABS)

‘ABS

prevents

the

wheels

from

locking

when

brak-

ing.

The

vehicle

can

still

be

steered

even

during

hard

braking.

Apply

steady

pressure

to

the

brake

pedal.

Do

not

pump

the

pedal.

Noises

will

indicate

when

the

system

is

working.

Anti-Slip

Regulation

(ASR)

ASR

reduces

drive

power

when

the

wheels

begin

spinning

and

adapts

the

power

to

the

road condi-

tions.

This

will

increase

the

driving

stability.

Electronic

Differential

Lock

(EDL)

The

EDL

applies

the

brakes

to

wheels

that

are

slipping

and

transfers

the

drive

power

to

the

oth-

er

wheels.

This

function

is

not

available

at

higher

speeds.

In

extreme

cases,

EDL

automatically

switches

off

to

keep

the

brake

on

the

braked

wheel

from

over-

heating.

The

vehicle

is

still

functioning

correctly.

EDL

will

switch

on

again

automatically

when

con-

ditions

have

returned

to

normal.

Selective

torque

control

Selective
