KNOWING YOUR CAR
MSR system (engine braking
torque control)
This is an integral part of the ASR
system that, in the event of a sudden
gear downshifting, cuts in and provides
torque to the engine thus preventing
excessive drive wheel drive which,
especially in poor grip conditions,
can lead to loss of stability.
Switching the ASR system on/off
fig. 50
The ASR can work only when the
ignition key is on MAR-ON.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be switched
off and subsequently switched on again
by pressing the
C ASR OFF button.
When the system is active, a message
on the reconfigurable multifunction
display (where provided) is displayed.
When the system is not active, the LED
on the button ASR OFF turns on and
a message on the reconfigurable
multifunction display (where provided)
is displayed. When the ASR is switched
off whilst driving, the next time the car
is started up the ASR is automatically
switched on by the system.
When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
slipping of the drive wheels when
moving off makes it possible to obtain
better traction.
ASR SYSTEM
(Antislip Regulation)
(where provided)
This is integral to the ESP system and
automatically intervenes if one or both
drive wheels slip, helping the driver
to control the car.
The action of the ASR system
is particularly helpful in the following
circumstances:
❒
slipping of the inner wheel
when cornering due to the effect
of dynamic load changes
or excessive acceleration;
❒
too much power transmitted
to the wheels also in relation to
the conditions of the road surface;
❒
acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy
surfaces;
❒
in the event of loss of grip on a wet
surface.
