About your Vehicle
Driving using the driving mode control switch
(“ Manettino”)
The driving mode control switch on the steering wheel allows the
driver to use the vehicle potential in a fast and intuitive way.
There are fi ve modes available, which correspond to the grip
level (from low to high) and consequently to the level of driving
assistance required (from high to none).
WET mode
“WET” mode ensures stability on dry as well as on wet roads. It is
therefore recommended for low grip conditions (e.g. rain) and on
slippery or extremely uneven roads, but also to enhance comfort
during city driving. Suspension damping is optimised to provide
the best possible absorption (Level 1) and the ESC system is at its
maximum level; the standard Bosch ASR system is activated instead
of the F1-Trac function.
If “WET” mode is selected, it is indicated on the left TFT display as
shown below:
SPORT mode
The “SPORT” mode is the best setting for daily road use. This
mode is designed to ensure stability only in medium-high grip
conditions. Suspension damping shifts to Level 2 and gearshifting
is more racy. The ESC system also switches to a different level
offering you greater driving freedom.
If “SPORT” mode is selected, it is indicated on the left TFT display
as shown below:
