The 7 - series» DSC includes a huge amount of sub-functions, including ABS (anti-lock
brakes), ASC (stability control, including a separate mode for stabilizing a trailer), CBC (cornering
brake control), DBC (Dynamic
Brake Control, which recognizes panic situations and helps the driver to
effect a full -
braking panic stop with less pedal pressure),
Brake Fade Compensation,
Brake Drying (which applies the
brakes slightly in wet conditions to keep the pads dry and thus ready for use),
Brake Standby (which applies slight
brake pressure in the event of a sudden lift from the gas, moving the
brake pads up against the rotor for quicker response in a panic stop), Startoff Assistant (which prevents the 750i from rolling backwards down a hill as you start out), ACC Active Cruise Control (see below), and automatic
brake hold (which holds the car at a stop even with the transmission in gear).
