ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
The vehicle has the following active
safety systems:
❒ABS;
❒EBD system;
❒Brake Assist system;
❒ESP system;
❒ASR system;
❒Hill Holder system;
❒MSR system;
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
ABS
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking or slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking
Force Distribution) completes the
system allowing the brake force to be
distributed between the front and
rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To get the maximum
efficiency of the braking system,
a bedding-in period of about 500 km is
needed: during this period it is better
to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS has
come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle
speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
53) 54) 55)
FAULT INDICATIONS
ABS failure
This is indicated by the
warning
light in the instrument panel coming on
(together with the appropriate message
on the multifunction display on some
versions) (see the “Warning lights and
messages” chapter).
In this case, the braking system will still
be effective, although without the
extra capacity offered by the ABS.
Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat
Dealership to have the system
checked.
EBD failure
This is indicated by the
and
warning lights in the instrument
panel coming on (together with the
appropriate message on the
multifunction display on some versions)
(see the “Warning lights and messages”
chapter).
In this case, the rear wheels may
suddenly lock and the vehicle may
swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.

ESC (Electronic
Stability Control)
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic system that
controls vehicle stability in the event
of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain
directional control.
The ESC system is therefore
particularly useful when grip
conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of
the engine braking torque during gear
changes) and the HBA system
(automatic increase in the braking
pressure during emergency braking)
are present with ESC, ASR and
Hill Holder systems (for
versions/markets where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of the
warning light in the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is
in critical stability and grip conditions.SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESC system is automatically
activated when the vehicle is started.
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the event of a fault, the ESC will be
automatically switched off and the
warning light will come on
permanently on the instrument panel
along with a message on the
multifunction display (for versions/
markets where provided) (see "Warning
lights and messages" section). The
LED on the ASR OFF button will also
light up. Contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
58)
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the
ESC system and facilitates starting on
slopes. It is automatically activated
in the following conditions:
❒uphill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%,
engine running, brake pressed and
gearbox in neutral or gear (other than
reverse) engaged;
❒downhill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%,
engine running, brake pressed and
reverse gear engaged.When setting off, the ESC system
control unit maintains the braking
pressure at the wheels until the torque
necessary for starting is reached, or
in any case for a maximum of 1.75
seconds, allowing your right foot to be
moved easily from the brake pedal to
the accelerator.
If the vehicle has not departed after
1.75 seconds, the system will
deactivate automatically by gradually
releasing the brake force.
During this release stage, the typical
brake disengagement noise indicating
that the vehicle is going to move
imminently will be heard.
Fault indications
Any system fault is indicated by the
turning on of the
warning light on
the instrument panel with digital display
and the
warning light on the
instrument panel with multifunction
display (for versions/markets where
provided) (see section “Warning lights
and messages”).
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake, therefore do not
leave the vehicle without activating the
handbrake, switching off the engine
and engaging first gear.

ASR SYSTEM (Antislip
Regulator)
This is a traction control system that
cuts in automatically every time one or
both drive wheels slip.
Depending on the slipping conditions,
two different control systems are
activated:
❒if the slipping involves both drive
wheels, the ASR intervenes reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
❒if the slipping only involves one of the
drive wheels, it intervenes
automatically braking the wheel that
is slipping.
The action of the ASR system is
particularly helpful in the following
circumstances:
❒slipping of the inner wheel on bends
due to dynamic variations in the load
or excessive acceleration;
❒excessive power transmitted to the
wheels, also in relation to road
surface conditions;
❒acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy
road surfaces;
❒loss of grip on wet road surfaces
(aquaplaning).MSR system (engine
drive regulation)
This is a system that, in the event of a
sudden gear down shift, cuts in and
provides torque to the engine thus
preventing excessive drive wheel drive
which, especially in poor grip
conditions, can lead to a loss of
stability.
Engagement/
disengagement of the
ASR system
The ASR system switches on
automatically each time the engine is
started.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be switched
off and subsequently switched on
again by pressing the fig. 122 button on
the dashboard.
Switching off is shown by the
warning light on the instrument panel
switching on and a dedicated message
shown in the multifunction display,
where provided.
If the ASR is switched off when driving,
it is automatically switched on again
when the vehicle is started up.When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
the driving wheels slipping when
moving off gives you better traction.
