DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.
270
Driver support systems
The vehicle is equipped with a number of driver support systems that can provide the driver withactive or passive assistance in various situations.
The system can, for example, help the driver maintain a set speed or a set time interval to thevehicle ahead, help prevent a collision by warningthe driver and applying the brakes, or assist thedriver while parking. Some of the systems are standard and others are options. This also varies from market to market.

Speed-dependent steering wheelresistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases the steering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. When parking and at low speeds, it will be easier tomove the steering wheel.
NOTE
In some situations, the power steering may become too hot and require temporary cool-ing – during such time the power steering willwork at reduced output and the steeringwheel may feel more difficult to move. In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer- ing assistance, the driver display shows amessage as well as a STEERING WHEELsymbol.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.271
WARNING
While the power steering is working at reduced power, the driver support functionswith steering assistance are not available. In such a situation, the driver display shows the
Power steering failure or Power
Steering Assist Temporarily Reduced
message, combined with a STEERING WHEEL symbol.
Changing the level of steering wheel resistance *
To change the level of steering wheel resistance, see the description of the INDIVIDUAL optionunder "Available drive modes" in the "Drivemodes" section. On models not equipped with drive mode con- trols and the INDIVIDUAL option, steering wheelresistance can instead be set in the center dis-play's Top view under:

Stability system Roll StabilityControl
The Roll Stability Control (RSC 1
) system helps
minimize the risk of a rollover in the event of e.g. a sudden evasive maneuver or if the vehiclebegins to skid.
The RSC system monitors the lateral angle at which the vehicle is leaning and registers anychanges. Using this information, the system cal-culates the likelihood of a rollover. If there is animminent risk of a rollover, Electronic StabilityControl is activated, engine torque is reduced andbrakes are applied to one or more of the wheelsuntil the vehicle has regained stability.
