Dodge Sprinter 2006 Owner's Manual

174 STARTING AND OPERATING
NOTE: If the ABS is malfunctioning or the voltage in
the vehicle’s electrical system drops below 10 volts, the
indicator lamp will also light up in the instrument
cluster and the ESP
®
will be deactivated. The indicator
lamp will go out as soon as the voltage reaches this
level again or the ABS is operational again – the ESP
®
is then reactivated.
Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
) (vehicle type
2500 only)
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
) monitors the
vehicle’s traction (force of adhesive friction between
the tires and the road surface) and handling.
The ESP
®
recognizes when a wheel is spinning or if the
vehicle starts to skid. By applying brakes to the
appropriate wheel and by limiting engine output, the
ESP
®
works to stabilize the vehicle. The ESP
®
is
especially useful while driving off and on wet or
slippery road surfaces.
The warning lamp v in the speedometer flashes
when the ESP
®
is engaged, refer also to "Warning
Lamp Acceleration Skid Control (ASR) and Electronic
Stability Program (ESP
®
)".
If wheels with tires of a different size than those offered
by an authorized Sprinter Dealer are used, the correct
operation of the ESP
®
cannot be guaranteed.
WARNING!
If the ESP
®
indicator lamp remains on, the
electronic stability program (ESP
®
) is malfunc-
tioning. The vehicle stability will no longer be au-
tomatically regulated in good time.
The danger that your vehicle breaks into a skid, is
increased in certain driving situations. Drive with
extra caution.
Have the ESP
®
repaired as soon as possible by an
authorized Spinter Dealer.
