ESP SYSTEM (Electronic
Stability Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system
controlling the car stability in the event of
tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly
useful when grip conditions of the road
surfaces changes.
ABS SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the warn-
ing light
áon the instrument panel, to in-
form the driver that the car is in critical
stability and grip conditions.
ESP SYSTEM OPERATION
The ESP system is automatically activat-
ed when the car is started and cannot be
de-activated.FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of failure, the ESP system is
automatically disconnected and the warn-
ing light
áwill turn on glowing steadily on
the instrument panel, together with the
message on the display (see section
“Warning lights and messages”). In this
case, go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Performance of the ESP sys-
tem, in terms of active safe-
ty should not induce the driver to take
pointless and unnecessary risks. The
style of driving must in any case al-
ways be adapted to the conditions of
the road surface, visibility an traffic.
Road safety is always the driver’s re-
sponsibility.
WARNING
ESP SYSTEM INITIALISATION
(after disconnecting the battery)
After reconnecting the battery, to restore
regular operation of the ESP system, pro-
ceed as follows:
❒turn the ignition key to MAR;
❒turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn both
clockwise and counterclockwise (to
pass through position “straight
wheels”);
❒turn the ignition key to STOPand then
back to MAR.
A few seconds later the warning light will
turn off; if it stays on contact Fiat Dealer-
ship.
These operations can also be performed
with the engine on.
During the use of the space-
saver spare wheel, the ESP
system carries on working. However,
you must remind that the space-saver
spare wheel has dimensions smaller
than the standard tyre and therefore
its grip is reduced as to the other car
tyres.
WARNING
For correct operation of the
ESP system, the tyres must
absolutely be of the same brand and
type on all wheels, in perfect condi-
tions and, above all, of type, brand
and size specified.
