lamp comes on while

The ABS has detected a malfunction and
has switched off. The BAS and the ESP are
also switched off (see messages in display).

mally but without the ABS available.
If the ABS control unit is malfunctioning,
other systems such as Parktronic,
Distronic**, the navigation system and the
automatic transmission can also malfunc-
tion.
Continue driving with added caution.
Wheels may lock during hard braking,
reducing steering capability.

rized Maybach Studio as soon as possi-
ble.
Failure to follow these instructions in-
creases the risk of an accident.
The charging voltage has fallen below
10 volts and the ABS has switched off.

again, the ABS is operational again.
If necessary, have the generator and
battery checked.
