At speeds up to approx. 37 mph/60 km/h, e.g.,

in curves, the steering angle is increased, i.e.,

steering becomes more direct.

The rear axle steering acts to increase maneu‐

verability by turning the rear wheels slightly in a

direction opposite to the front wheels.

At higher speeds, the steering angle is increas‐

ingly reduced.

The rear wheels are turned to the same angle as

the front wheels.

In critical situations, Integral Active Steering can

specifically steer the front and rear wheels to

stabilize the vehicle before the driver intervenes,

e.g., when braking where road conditions differ

on the left and right sides of the vehicle.

Initializing

In rare cases, it may become necessary to initi‐

alize the Integral Active Steering.

The warning lamp lights up. A Check

Control message is displayed.

With the engine running, turn the steering

wheel all the way to the left and right several

times in a uniform manner until the warning

lamp disappears.

2. Have the system checked if the warning

lamp does not go out after moving the steer‐

ing wheel approx. 6 times or if the steering

wheel is at an angle.

Using snow chains

Ensure that the rear axle steering is deactivated

when using snow chains, refer to page 199.

Programs

The system offers two different programs.

The programs can be selected via the Driving

Experience Switch, refer to page 122.

SPORT

Consistently sporty tuning of the Integral Active

Steering for greater driving agility.

COMFORT

Balanced tuning of the Integral Active Steering

for optimal traveling comfort.

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, the steering wheel

must be turned further, while the vehicle re‐

sponds more sensitively to steering wheel

movements in the higher speed range.

The stability-enhancing intervention may be de‐

activated.

Proceed cautiously and drive defensively.

Have the system checked.
