Understanding the Vehicle
TPMS Deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated if
replacing all four tire rims with wheel
and tire assemblies not using of TPMS
sensors, such as winter wheel and tire
assemblies. After replacing all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires not equipped with Tire Pressure
Monitoring System sensors, drive the
vehicle for 20 minutes above 15 MPH
(24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the
TPMS light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on and
the instrument cluster will display the
“Service Tire Pressure System” message
and then display dashes (--) in place of
the pressure values. Beginning with the
next ignition device cycle, the TPMS will
no longer chime or display the “Service
Tire Pressure System” message in the
instrument cluster but dashes (--) will
remain in place of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with tires endowed with TPMS sensors.
Then, drive the vehicle for up to 20
minutes above 15 MPH (24 km/h). The
TPMS will chime, the TPMS light will
flash for 75 seconds and then turn off.
The instrument cluster will then display
the “Service Tire Pressure System”
message.
The instrument cluster will also display
pressure values in place of the dashes (-
-). On the next ignition device cycle the
“Service Tire Pressure System” message
will no longer be displayed as long as no
system fault exists.

Brake and Stability Control
Systems
The vehicle is endowed with an
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system, which helps to maintain
directional control in the event of loss of
grip of the tires. The system is able to
detect potentially dangerous situations
for the stability of the vehicle and
automatically sets the brakes on all four
wheels in a differentiated manner, in
order to provide a torque settlement of
the vehicle.
ESC includes the following subsystems:
• ABS (Anti-lock Braking System);
• EBD (Electronic Brake-force
Distribution);
• TCS (Traction Control System);
• BAS (Brake Assist System);
• BTO (Brake Throttle Override);
• HSA (Hill Start Assist).
• ROM (Roll-Over Mitigation);
• AVH (Auto Vehicle Hold)
WARNING!
•
These systems cannot prevent the
natural laws of physics from affecting
the vehicle, nor can they increase
traction, braking or steering efficiency
beyond that afforded by the condition
of the vehicle brakes and tires.
