Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction Control)   optimises   traction   to   prevent   skidding o

f   the   wheels,   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the
 d

riving   wheels   and   on   the   engine.
The
  electronic   stability   programme   acts   on   the
 b

rake   of   one   or   more   wheels   and   on   the   engine
 t

o   keep   the   vehicle   on   the   trajectory   required   by
 t

he   driver,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws   of   physics.

w

arning   lamp   in   the   instrument   panel. The
