When the engine is off or if the vehicle is
towed, it is harder to steer.

tted on the front of the left-hand water
radiator which cools the said uid before it
is returned to the tank.
In the event of a system failure, the vehicle
can still be steered even if greater force is
required to turn the steering wheel. In this
case, it is advisable to stop the vehicle and
contact an Authorised Ferrari Service

The vehicle is equipped with electronically-
controlled rack-and-pinion type hydraulic
steering, which is servo-assisted by a
variable-calibration hydraulic circuit.
As the speed increases the aerodynamic
load exerted on the vehicle together with
the pump calibration allows obtaining a
constant steering load with a sensation
of mechanical driving, which, if steering
sharply, assures perfect accuracy and
handling.
The steering column is articulated, height-
adjustable and power-absorbing, with
permanently-lubricated joints. The sensor
that communicates the steering wheel
position to the various onboard systems is
positioned on the steering column.
The hydraulic steering system is composed
of a belt-driven pump which drives the
auxiliary parts of the engine. The uid
