ABS system*
This system increases safety by preventing the wheels from locking in the event of harsh braking or in conditions of poor grip. It enables the driver to maintain control of the steering.
The operating capacity of all the essential electrical elements of the ABS system is controlled by an electronic moni-
toring system both before and during driving. The ABS light comes on when the ignition is switched on, and should
go out after approximately two seconds. If the light does not go out, this indicates that the ABS is disconnected due
to a fault. Likewise, if the light comes on while driving, this indicates that the ABS is not operating. In both cases,
the normal braking system remains effective, as on a vehicle without ABS. However, to avoid the occurrence of other
faults with unknown consequences, the ABS should be inspected as soon as possible by an approved dealer.
It is still necessary to drive carefully on slippery surfaces (loose stones, snow, ice, etc.)..
67III-3BRAKES
Handbrake
The handbrake is operated by pulling the lever upwards. The greater the slope you are on, the greater the force that should be applied in pulling the
lever.
To ease the action of the handbrake lever, it is recommended that you press the brake pedal at the same time. As a precaution, 1st gear should be engaged in all cases. On steep slopes, you should also turn the wheels towards the kerb.
To release the handbrake, pressthe button while pulling the lever up, then
lower the lever to the fully down position.The warning light comes on if the handbrake is on or not fully released, with the ignition on.
