SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the flashing of the
ESC
warning light
on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that
the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESC system switches on automatically when the
engine is started and cannot be switched off.
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the ESC system and
facilitates starting on slopes.
It is activated automatically in the following instances:
❒
uphill: car stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pressed and
gearbox in neutral or gear (other than reverse)
engaged;
❒
downhill: car stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pressed and
reverse gear engaged.
When setting off, the ESC system control unit
maintains braking pressure on the wheels until the
torque required for starting is reach or, in any case,
for a maximum of 2 seconds so that the right foot
can be moved easily from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
When 2 seconds have elapsed, without any
departure having taken place, the system is
automatically deactivated, gradually releasing the
braking pressure. During this release stage, a typical
mechanical brake release noise can be heard,
indicating that the car is about to move.
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking
brake; therefore, never leave the vehicle without
having engaged the handbrake, turned the engine off
and engaged the 1
st
gear, so that the vehicle is parked
in safe conditions (for further information read
paragraph "When parked" in the chapter "Starting
and driving").
ASR SYSTEM (AntiSlip Regulation)
It is an integral part of the ESC system. It
automatically operates in the event of one or both
drive wheels slipping, loss of grip on wet roads
(aquaplaning) and acceleration on slippery, snowy or
icy roads, etc…
Depending on the slipping conditions, two different
control systems are activated:
❒
if the slipping involves both drive wheels, the ASR
intervenes reducing the power transmitted by the
engine;
❒
if the slipping only involves one of the drive
wheels, it intervenes automatically braking the
wheel that is slipping.
