Brakes
6 Slowly accelerate and release the
clutch.
The automatic system releases the
brakes when the clutch is released, or
when the engine torque is sufficient.
Deactivate the function by pressing the
switch again. The function is deactivated
and reset when the engine is restarted.
Only use the function on uphill gradients.
Brake back-up function
If a fault occurs in the electrical control of
the brake pressure, then it is still
possible to brake the bus. The built-in
back-up function ensures braking
performance, fully or partially, in a
pneumatically controlled manner. The
brake pedal must be depressed with
more force to achieve the same braking
performance as before.
Among other things, the back-up
disengages the ABS system, fully or
partially, depending on where the fault
occurred.
In the event of a loss of EBS, the STOP
lamp in the instrument cluster is
illuminated. The driver information
display also shows a message to that
effect.
