Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you to   obtain   the   optimum   braking   pressure   more  
q

uickly,   thus   reducing   the   stopping   distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal   is   pressed.
The
  effect   of   this   is   a   reduction   in   the  
r

esistance   of   the   pedal   and   an   increase   in  
b

raking
 e
fficiency.
When
  braking   in   an   emergency,   press  
f

irmly   without   releasing   the   pressure.
Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and dynamic stability
control (
d
SC)
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 control acts on the
brake
  of   one   or   more   wheels   and   on   the   engine  
t

b

y   the   driver,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws   of  
p

These systems are activated automatically each   time   the   vehicle   is   started.
They
