(PSM)
GeneralinformationregardingPSM
PSMisanactivecontrolsystemforstabilizationofthevehicleduringextremedrivingmaneuvers.
Warning!

Adaptyourdrivingstyletotheprevailingroadandweatherconditions.
Obeyalltrafficlaws.
AdvantagesofPSM
–Superiortractionandlane-holdingabilityinalldrivingsituations-evenonroadsurfaceswithvaryingfriction.
–Thesystemcompensatesforundesiredvehi-clereactions(Ferrariaeffect)whenthedriverreleasestheacceleratorpedalorbrakeson

–PSMactivelystabilizesthevehicleduringdynamicdrivingmaneuvers(e.g.rapidsteeringmovements,duringlanechangesoronalternatingcurves).
–Improvedbrakingstabilityincurvesandondifferentorvaryingroadsurfaces.
Readinessforoperation
PSMisswitchedonautomaticallyeverytimeyoustarttheengine.
Function
Sensorsatthewheels,brakes,steeringsystemandenginecontinuouslymeasure:
–Speed
–Directionoftravel(steeringangle)
–Lateralacceleration
–Rateofturnabouttheverticalaxis
PSMusesthesevaluestodeterminethedirectionoftraveldesiredbythedriver.PSMintervenesandcorrectsthecourseiftheactualdirectionofmotiondeviatesfromthedesiredcourse(steering-wheelposition):Itbrakesindividualwheelsasneeded.Inaddition,theenginepowermaybemanipulatedinordertostabilizethevehicle.
