When the CITY function is on, the steering wheel
effort is lighter, parking operations are easier:
therefore this function is particularly useful for
driving in city centres.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market
operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance
and safety, invalidate warranty and also
result in non-compliance of the car with
type approval requirements.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres
requiring a lot of steering, the steering may
become harder; this is normal and is due to the
intervention of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating, so no
intervention is required. When the car is used
again later on, the power steering will work
normally.
WARNING
Before starting any servicing
operation, stop the
engine and
remove the key from the ignition switch to
operate the steering lock, particularly when
the wheels do not touch the ground. If this
is not possible (for example if the key needs
to be turned to MAR-ON or the engine must
be running), remove the main fuse that
protects the electric power steering.
