Operation
EBS brake system
EBS brake system
The electronic brake system (EBS) con-
trols the vehicle's braking behaviour. The
anti-lock braking system (ABS) and ac-
celeration skid control (ASR) functions
are part of the electronic brake system
(EBS).
EBS helps to achieve a more rapid brak-
ing effect at the wheels. ABS prevents
the wheels from locking above a speed
equivalent to walking pace, regardless of
the road conditions.
EBS comprises two circuits: a purely
pneumatic brake circuit and a superim-
posed electropneumatic brake circuit.
Each wheel is equipped with sensors
that continuously record the rate of
brake pad wear. An overly worn brake
pad is indicated by a yellow alert and
the “Brake pads” symbol on the display
screen.
Under partial braking, the braking pres-
sures are adapted between the front axle
and rear axle as a function of the brake
pad thickness to ensure even wear of
the brake pads.
Acceleration skid control (ASR)
M54.00-2005-71
Acceleration skid control prevents the
drive wheels from spinning when pulling
away or accelerating, regardless of road
surface conditions.
Danger.
Acceleration skid control does not relieve
the driver of the responsibility for adopt-
ing a driving style which takes traffic and
road conditions into account. The bus
may skid out of control if ASR has been
switched off and the drive wheels start to
spin.
Note:
Indicator lamp (1) flashes while accelera-
tion skid control (ASR) is intervening.
