Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) – 325xi, 330xi
The concept
DSC maintains vehicle stability, even in
critical driving situations.
The DSC is operational every time you
start the engine.
DSC includes the Automatic Differential
Brake (ADB-X) and Cornering Brake
Control (CBC) functions.
Indicator lamps
The indicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster goes out shortly
after the ignition has been
switched on; refer to page 19.
>The indicator lamp flashes: DSC is
actively controlling drive torque and
braking intervention
>The indicator lamp stays lit: DSC has
been switched off with the button;
ADB-X is operational. ADB-X control
intervention is not indicated.
If the indicator lamp fails to go out
when you press the DSC button,
this indicates a malfunction in the DSC
and ADB-X systems; the system is
deactivated, and the stability enhance-
ment functions are no longer avail-
able.<
The vehicle will remain completely
operational, however, without DSC. In
the event of a fault, please consult your
BMW center.
To deactivate DSC
Press the DSC button; the indicator
lamp comes on and stays on.
DSC is now off, and ADB-X reverts to
its maximum torque-transfer mode.
In the following exceptional circum-
stances, it may be effective to deacti-
vate the DSC for a short period:
>When rocking the vehicle or starting
off in deep snow or on loose surfaces
>When driving with snow chains.
To maintain vehicle stability,
always drive with the DSC acti-
vated whenever possible.<
