ABS SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking and slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The system intervenes during braking
when the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The ABS ensures the direction of the
vehicle while braking and optimises the
braking distances at the same time.
The system also improves control and
stability of the vehicle when braking
on a surface on which the grip of the
left and right wheels differs, or when
braking while cornering.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribution),
which distributes the braking action
between the front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT For 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.
49)
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.

MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This is an integral part of the ABS
system and prevents the drive wheels
from locking, which could happen,
for example, if the accelerator pedal is
released suddenly or in the case of
shifting down suddenly in conditions of
poor grip. In these conditions, the
engine braking effect could cause the
drive wheels to slip, resulting in a loss
of vehicle stability. In these situations,
the system intervenes, restoring torque
to the engine in order to conserve
vehicle stability and increase safety.
WARNING
49)The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it; you
should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.50)When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not remove
your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
51)If the ABS system intervenes, this
indicates that the traction of the tyres on
the road is nearing its limit. You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the
available traction.
52)The ABS cannot overrule the natural
laws of physics, and cannot increase
the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
53)The ABS system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
54)The capability of the ABS must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
55)For the correct operation of the ABS,
the tyres must of necessity be the same
make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the prescribed
type and dimensions.
56)If the space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where provided) is used,
the ABS keeps operating. Always
remember that the space-saver wheel,
being smaller than the original wheel,
provides less grip.
