ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP) AND TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
These systems are closely associated with ABS and additional to it. In the event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP system acts automatically on one or more wheels and also on the engine to bring the vehicle back on trajectory. The ASR system optimises traction and prevents wheel spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels as well as on the engine. It also improves steering stability during acceleration.
OPERATION
When either the ESP or the ASR system is brought into operation the warning lamp “ESP/ASR ” fl a s h e s .
