Starting and driving
so low that a lot of wheelspin can occur rap-
idly:
• When the car is pulling away or acceler-
ating with the front wheels on different
surfaces (e.g. one slippery and one dry),
the TCS functions like an electronic differ-
ential lock, making sure that both wheels
rotate at the same speed. The system
also works during reversing.
• When cornering, if the inside front wheel
rotates faster than the other wheels.
TCS indicator
When the remote control is turned to posi-
tion 3, the lamp is lit for about 4 seconds
while the system performs self-diagnosis.
The indicator
in the main instrument
panel illuminates when TCS regulates, that
is when one of the wheels has lost its grip.
The fact that the TCS is operative indicates
that the limit for grip has been exceeded and
that the driver must exercise greater care.
TCS OFF
in the main instrument panel illumi-
nates when
• the system has been switched off manu-
ally, speed must be below 60 km/h.
• there is a fault in the ABS system.
• there is a fault in the TCS system, and
at the same time the following mes-
sage is shown on the DIC:
Turning the TCS off temporarily
The TCS is switched on automatically when
the engine is started.
It may be necessary to switch off the system
if the car has become bogged down, for
instance.
If a fault is detected in the ABS, the TCS will
be switched off automatically.
The cruise control system (if active) will
automatically be disengaged if the TCS is
operative.
