TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Traction Plus is a help with driving and setting off in
poor grip conditions (snow, ice, mud, etc.) which allows
the drive force to be evenly distributed over the same
axle when both wheels are slipping.
In effect, Traction Plus acts by braking the wheels with
poor grip (or those slipping more than the others),
thereby transferring the drive force to those which have
more grip on the ground.
This function can be turned on manually by pressing the
T+ button fig. 130 on the dashboard and works below a
level of 30 km/h. Over this speed, it is automatically
deactivated (the LED on the button is still on) and it is
reactivated again when the speed is below 30 km/h.Traction Plus operation
The system is deactivated when starting up. To activate
the “Traction Plus” system, press the button
(T+ fig. 130): the LED on the button switches on.
The activation of the Traction Plus system involves the
following functions being switched on:
❒inhibition of the ASR function, in order to fully
exploit the engine torque;
❒the differential locking effect on the front axle,
through the braking system, to improve traction on
irregular grounds.
If the “Traction Plus” system is faulty, the “general
failure” instrument panel warning light ácomes on
steady.

Lubricants
(▲)
For diesel engines, in the event of an emergency in which the original products are not available, lubricants with at least ACEA C2
performance are acceptable; however, in this case optimum engine performance is not guaranteed and the lubricants should be replaced
with recommended products as soon as possible at a Fiat Dealership.
The use of products with lower specifications than ACEA C2 could cause damage to the engine not covered by the warranty.
For particularly harsh climate conditions, ask a Fiat Dealership for the appropriate product from PETRONAS LUBRICANTS.
