You can adjust the level of assistance from traction control and, in doing so, adjust the balance between stability and agility gradually while accelerating.

Take the following parameters into account:
  • current road conditions

  • type of tyre used

  • road characteristics

  • tyre condition, such as temperature or wear

  • personal driving style

Display button shows the current traction control level with an LED segment display.

To increase or reduce the level of assistance from traction control, turn control clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Display button and the instrument cluster show the set level.

If the display button shows level 1 with only one LED segment lit up, traction control is deactivated (OFF). If level 9 is shown and all LED segments light up, traction control is providing the maximum level of assistance (ON).

If you activate ESP®, the level of assistance from traction control is controlled automatically. Display button then shows the current drive program.
