EXCERPT:
30-350 Design and function of electronic accelerator
A. General
The acceleration slip control (ASR) is an automatic system for improving starting-off and accelerating capability as well as driving stability.
ASR is the logical further development of the anti-lock system (ABS). Whereas ABS prevents the wheels from locking when braking and thus maintains steering control and driving stability when braking the vehicle, ASR prevents the driven wheels from spinning when moving off and accelerating. The result is optimal driving stability with enhanced traction. The ABS basic components are supplemented for ASR by a hydraulic unit with expanded functions, a pressure supply unit, a fourth rotational speed sensor, enlarged electronic control and the electronic accelerator with control unit, potentiometer and electronic accelerator actuator.
In addition, the cruise control system is contained in the control unit of the electronic accelerator.
