Dynamic Stability Control

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) detects the current status of the vehicle by evaluating the sensor signals. This status is compared with the nominal values derived from a computational model. In this way, the system recognizes incipient instabilities.

The vehicle is stabilized as soon as a deviation exceeds the control threshold stored in the DSC control unit. Stabilization (within the limits imposed by the laws of physics) is achieved by reducing engine power and by braking individual wheels.

DSC interventions override the ABS and ASC functions.

The DSC function can be deactivated by means of the DSC button.
