ESP SYSTEM (Electronic Stability
Program)(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls vehicle
stability in the event of tyre grip loss, helping to
maintain directional control.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when
the 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 ESP, ASR and
Hill Holder systems (for versions/markets where
provided).SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the instrument panel
warning light
, to inform the driver that the car
is in critical stability and grip conditions.
Switching the system on
The ESP system is automatically activated when the
vehicle is started and cannot be de-activated.
Failure indications
In the event of a failure, the ESP 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.WARNING
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with an ESP
system.Your driving style should always take
road conditions, visibility and traffic into
account .The driver is always responsible for
road safety.

HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It's integral to the ESP system. It automatically
activates with the following conditions:
❒uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pedal
pressed and gearbox in neutral or gear other than
reverse;
❒downhill: vehicle stationary on a road with a
gradient higher than 5%, engine running, brake
pedal pressed and reverse gear engaged.
At pickup, the ESP system control unit will keep
braking pressure on the wheels until reaching the
required torque for starting or, in any case, for
a maximum of 2 seconds in order to move easily the
right foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator
pedal. When two seconds have elapsed, without
starting, the system is automatically deactivated,
gradually releasing the braking pressure. During this
release stage, the typical brake disengagement noise
indicating that the vehicle is going to move
imminently will be heard.Failure indications
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking
brake; therefore, never leave the vehicle without
having engaged the handbrake, turned the engine off
and engaged the first gear.
WARNING
For the correct operation of the ESP and
ASR systems, the tyres must be the
same make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the type, make and
size recommended.

ASR SYSTEM (Anti-Slip Regulation)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is a traction control system that cuts in
automatically every time one or both drive wheels
slip.
Depending on how slippery the road is, two different
control systems are activated:
❒if slipping involves both driving wheels, the ASR
function 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 especially useful in
the following conditions:
❒slipping of the inner wheel round bends due to
dynamic variations in the load of excessive
acceleration;
❒excessive power transmitted to the wheels, also in
relation to road surface conditions;
❒acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy road
surfaces;
❒in the case of loss of grip on a wet surface
(aquaplaning).
WARNING
For the correct operation of the ESP and
ASR systems, the tyres must be the
same make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the type, make and
size recommended.
MSR SYSTEM (engine drive regulation)
This is an integral part of the ASR 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.
When travelling, the ASR can be switched off and on
again pressing button fig. 91 located among the
controls in the dashboard.
The switching off is shown by the LED in the actual
switch coming on together with a message shown
in the multifunction display (for versions/markets,
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 skidding when moving
off gives you better traction.
WARNING
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with this system.
Your driving style must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility and traffic .The driver
is always responsible for road safety.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of a failure, the ASR system will be
automatically switched off and warning light
will
appear permanently on the instrument panel along
with a message on the multifunction display (for
versions/markets where provided) (see “Warning
lights and messages” section). In this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
