Speed-dependent steering wheel resistance Speed-dependent power steering increases the steering wheel resistance in pace withthe vehicle's speed, which can help give thedriver an enhanced feeling of control and sta-bility. Steering is stiffer on highways. Whenparking and at low speeds, it will be easier tomove the steering wheel.
Reduced powerIn rare situations, the power steering may need to work at reduced power and the steer-ing wheel may then feel more difficult tomove. This may happen when the powersteering becomes too hot and needs to betemporarily cooled. It can also happen if thereis a disturbance in power supply.
If there is reduced power, the message
Power steering
Assistance temporarily reduced
and this symbol are
shown in the instrument panel.
While the power steering is working at reduced power, the driver support functionsand systems with steering assistance are notavailable.
