Because of the needs-based use of the all-
wheel-drive system, Efficient4x4 yields a re-
duction in consumption.
Automatic Differential Brake
Principle
Automatic Differential Brake controls the driv-
ing power by automatic brake intervention on
individual wheels.
General information
The function works in the same way as a
differential lock and improves traction on a
loose surface, for example. The system de-
tects when a wheel begins to spin and auto-
matically brakes this wheel.
The driving power is diverted to the wheel with
better traction.
As a result, the driving power is transferred
more efficiently to the wheels during accelera-
tions.
Integral Active Steering
Principle
The Integral Active Steering increases the ma-
neuverability of the vehicle and makes a more
direct steering response possible.
General information
The Integral Active Steering is a combination
of the variable steering ratio of the front axle
and the rear axle steering.
The rear axle steering acts to increase maneu-
verability at low speeds by turning the rear
wheels slightly in the opposite direction to the
front wheels.
At higher speeds, the rear wheels are turned
in the same direction as the front wheels. For
instance, this results in a harmonious lane
change.
In critical driving situations, the Integral Active
Steering can stabilize the vehicle through pur-
poseful steering of the rear wheels before the
driver intervenes, for instance in case of over-
steering.
Setting
The system offers several different settings.
With the driving modes of the My Modes, the
system can be set to comfortable or dynamic.
Additional information:
My Modes, refer to page 137.
Using tire chains
In order to guarantee free movement of the
wheels when operating with tire chains, rear
axle steering must be turned off when tire
chains are mounted.
Additional information:
Rear axle steering during operation with tire
chains, refer to page 330.
Malfunction
A Check Control message is displayed.
Steering system may be faulty.
In the event of a malfunction, the steering
wheel must be turned further at lower speeds.
The response of the vehicle is more sensitive
in higher speed ranges.
There is no longer support of the Integral Ac-
tive Steering in critical driving situations.
Proceed cautiously and drive defensively.
Have the system checked by an authorized
service center or another qualified service cen-
ter or repair shop.
