TRACTION PLUS
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Traction Plus is a driving aid, useful
for setting off in poor grip conditions
(snow, ice, mud, etc.) which allows the
drive force to be distributed in the
best way over the front axle when one
wheel is slipping.
Traction Plus acts by braking the
wheels with poor grip (or those slipping
more than the others), thereby
transferring the drive force to those
which have greater grip on the ground.
This function can be activated manually
by pressing the button "fig. 82 on the
side control panel and operates under
50 km/h. Over this speed, it is
automatically deactivated (the LED on
the button is still on) and it is
reactivated again when the speed is
below 50 km/h.
Traction Plus operation
The system is deactivated when
starting. To activate the "Traction Plus"
system, press the button T+ fig. 82:
the LED on the button switches on.
The activation of the Traction Plus
system involves the following functions
being switched on:
inhibition of the ASR function, in
order to fully exploit the engine torque;
the differential locking effect on
the front axle, through the braking
system, to improve traction on irregular
grounds.
If the Traction Plus system is faulty, the
warning light on the instrument
panel switches on constantly.
OCCUPANT
