ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM: ESP
This system helps you to keep
control of the vehicle in critical
driving conditions (avoiding an
obstacle,lossofgripinabend,etc.).
This function is an
additional aid in case of
critical driving conditions
to enable the vehicle
behaviour to be adapted to suit the
driving conditions.
However, the function does not
take the place of the driver. It
does not increase the vehicle's
limits and should not encourage
you to drive more quickly.
Thus, it can, under no
circumstances, replace the
vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the
vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents
which may occur when driving).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel
detects the direction selected by the
driver.
Other sensors throughout the
vehicle measure the actual
direction.
The system compares the direction
selected by the driver and the actual
direction of the vehicle and corrects
this as necessary by applying the
brakes selectively and/or acting on
the engine power.
When the function is in operation,
message 1 flashes to make you
aware of this.
Operating faults
When the system detects an
operating fault, warning lights 1 and
3 light up.
