The system compares the driver's
adherence to the effective trajectory,
correcting it if necessary, braking a few
wheels and/or reducing engine power if
the system was activated and its
warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel.
Understeering control
This system optimises the ESC action
in case of noticeable understeer (loss of
front grip).
Traction Control System
This system limits the drive wheels
slipping and helps control the vehicle
when starting out, accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Thanks to the sensor in the wheels, the
system measures and compares the
drive wheel rotation speed, detecting
immediately loss of grip. If a wheel
starts sliding, the system intervenes by
braking to re-stabilise the drive that is
compatible with the level of road grip.
The system also acts on the engine
speed, adapting it to wheel road grip,
independently of the driver's use of the
accelerator.
Irregular operation
When the system detects an
operational irregularity, the dedicated
message appears on the display and
the warning lights
and
turn
on.
In this case, the ESC and traction
control system are deactivated. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
PBA (Panic Brake
Assist) SYSTEM
This is a complementary system to the
ABS that lets you reduce the vehicle's
braking distance.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In such cases, the
power brake immediately creates the
maximum braking, causing the ABS
system to also intervene.
ABS intervention lasts until the brake
pedal is released.
Hazard warning lights on
Depending on the versions, these lights
can go on when you slow down
abruptly.
Anticipated braking
Depending on the versions, when you
quickly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates braking so as to
diminish the braking distance.
When using Cruise Control:
if you are using the accelerator pedal,
with you release it, the system can
activate;
if you are not using the accelerator
pedal, the system will not activate.
Irregular operation
When the system detects an
operational irregularity, the message to
that effect will appear on the instrument
panel with the alarm light
going
on.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
TSA (Trailer Stability
Assist) DRIVING
ASSISTANCE WITH A
TRAILER
This system helps you maintain control
of the vehicle in case you are using a
trailer. It detects the swinging motion of
the trailer in certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
the towing system must be
type-approved by the Fiat Dealership;
the wiring has to be approved by a
Fiat Dealership;
the trailer has to be connected to the
vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
asymmetrical front wheel braking to
reduce swinging caused by the trailer;
four wheel braking and a limitation in
engine torque to reduce the vehicle
speed until the swinging stops.
The warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel to inform you of the
situation.
