POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Power-assisted steering
Variable power-assisted steering
The variable power assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) while
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
Stop and Start feature
Depending on the vehicle, when the
engine switches to standby, the steer-
ing assistance may no longer be opera-
tional. In this case it returns to its origi-
nal state when the engine is restarted
or when the speed moves above
0.62 mph (1 km/h) (hill, slope, etc.).
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.
Do not switch off the engine
when driving downhill and,
as a general rule, when
driving (the power-assisted
steering and brake cannot operate
normally).
With the engine switched off, or if
there is a system fault, it is still pos-
sible to turn the steering wheel. The
force required will be greater.
Engine on standby - power-
assisted steering is no
longer operational.
