The indicator lamp and the yellow brake warning lamp will remain on continuously. The systems for enhancing stability and traction are deactivated, and there is no active braking intervention or torque control. To maintain vehicle stability, always drive with the DSC activated whenever possible. < The laws of physics cannot be repealed, even with DSC. It will always be the driver's responsibility to drive in a manner that matches road conditions. This is why you should not use the additional safety margin the system provides as an excuse to take risks. Whenever the DTC is activated, the DSC is switched off and performs minor stabilizing intervention. Do not make any modifications to the DSC system. Allow only authorized technicians to perform service procedures on the DSC. < 87 Reactivating the DSC Press the button again briefly; the indicator lamp or the indicator lamps will go out. DTC is deactivated.
