BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking assistance)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The system, which cannot be turned off, recognises
emergency braking (on the basis of the brake pedal
operating speed) and speeds up the response of
the braking system.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the versions equipped
with ESP, in the event of ESP system failure, indicated
by warning light
coming on together with the
message on the display.
ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls car stability
in the event of tyre grip loss, helping maintain
directional control.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when
the grip conditions of road surfaces change.
With the ESP, the car is provided with ASR (traction
control with interventions on brakes and engine),
HILL HOLDER (device for starting on gradients
without using the brakes), MSR (control of engine
braking torque when shifting gear down) and HBA
(automatic increase of braking pressure in the case of
emergency braking).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the warning light
on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that
the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESP system comes on automatically when the
vehicle is started and cannot be turned off.
