Speed-dependent steering force Speed related power steering causes the steer- ing wheel force to increase with the speed of thecar in order to give the driver enhanced sensitiv-ity.
On motorways the steering feels firmer. When parking and at low speed steering is light andrequires only a slight effort.
NOTE
In certain situations the power steering may become too hot and then needs to be tempo-rarily cooled - during this time the powersteering operates with reduced power andturning the steering wheel may then be per-ceived to be slightly heavier. In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer- ing assistance, the driver display shows amessage.
Change the steering force level *To select the steering force level, go to the "Drive modes" section and see the description at thealternative INDIVIDUAL under the heading"Selectable drive modes". For the car models without a drive mode control with its INDIVIDUAL option, the selection ofsteering force is instead made via the centre dis-play's top view and the following search path:

Roll Stability Control Roll Stability Control (RSC) is a stabiliser sys- tem that minimises the risk of overturning, forexample during sudden evasive manoeuvres or ifthe car skids.
The RSC system registers if and how much the car's lateral inclination changes. This informationis used to calculate the risk of the car overturn-ing. If the car is at risk, its electronic stability con-trol system engages, the engine torque isreduced and one or more wheels are braked untilthe car has regained its stability.
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the RSC sys- tem improves the car's road safety, but thismust not be taken as a reason to increasespeed. Always follow the normal precautionsfor safe driving.

• the gear selector is moved to
N position
• the clutch pedal is held depressed for longerthan 1 minute
• the driver maintains a speed higher than thestored speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then control the speed himself/herself. A temporary increase in speed with the accelera- tor pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affectthe setting - the car returns to the last storedspeed when the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and set in standby mode if:
• wheels lose traction
• engine speed is too low/high
• brake temperature is too high
• speed falls below 30 km/h (20 mph).
The driver must then control the speed himself/herself.
