Safety
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you
to obtain the optimum braking pressure more
quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
When braking in an emergency, press
firmly without releasing the pressure.
Trajectory control systems
Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-skid regulation (also known as
Traction Control) optimises traction to prevent
skidding of the wheels, by acting on the brakes
of the driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the engine
to keep the vehicle on the trajectory required
by the driver, within the limits of the laws of
physics.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
