Operating faults
The steering may become stiff when
driving or when the steering wheel is
turned repeatedly. This is due to the
power assistance overheating. In this
case, it must be allowed to cool down.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) whilst
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
Steering wheel
Power-assisted steering
STEERING WHEEL/pOWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.
Never switch off the igni -
tion when travelling down -
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
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.
Adjusting the steering wheel
Depending on the vehicle, the steering
wheel position is adjustable.
Hold the steering wheel with one hand,
lift lever 1 and position the steering
wheel as desired. Lower the lever to
lock the steering wheel.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.

Electronic stability program
(ESP) with understeer control
and traction control (ASR)
Indicator light 1 ù on the instru -
ment panel flashes when the function
starts operating. Electronic stability program ESP
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi
-
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares the direction se-
lected by the driver and the actual di -
rection of the vehicle and corrects this
as necessary by applying the brakes
selectively and/or acting on the engine
power.
Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESP in the case of pronounced unders -
teering (loss of front axle road holding). t
raction control (ASR)
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au -
tomatically until the drive supplied be -
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal.

Steering becomes heavy. Assistance overheating.Leave to cool.
Faulty power-assisted steering. Consult an approved dealer.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light comes on (or
the indicator needle is in the red area). Coolant pump: belt stretched or
broken.
Engine cooling fan not working.Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an approved Dealer.
Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and the
tightness of the clips.
Check the expansion bottle: it should
contain coolant. If it does not, top it up
(once it has cooled). Take care not
to scald yourself. This action is only
temporary; consult your approved Dealer
as soon as possible.
radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
