Function of BAS (Brake Assist System)
WARNING Risk of an accident caused by a malfunction in BAS (Brake Assist System)
If BAS is malfunctioning, the braking distance in an emergency braking situation is increased.
Depress the brake pedal with full force in emergency braking situations. ABS prevents the wheels from locking.
BAS supports you with additional braking force in an emergency braking situation.
If you depress the brake pedal quickly, BAS is activated:
BAS automatically boosts the braking force of the brakes
BAS can shorten the braking distance
ABS prevents the wheels from locking
When you release the brake pedal, the brakes function as usual again. BAS is deactivated.
