ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system controlling the
car stability in the event of tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when
grip conditions of the road surfaces change.
ESP SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is indicated by the blinking of the warning light áon
the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car
is in critical stability and grip conditions.The performance of the system, in terms of active
safety should not induce the driver to take pointless
and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in any
case always be adapted to the conditions of the road
surface, visibility and traffic. Road safety is always the
driver’s responsibility.
ESP SYSTEM OPERATION
The ESP system is automatically inserted when the car
is started and cannot be deactivated.
FAILURE WARNINGS
In the event of failure, the ESP system is automatically
disconnected and the warning light áwill come on
with fixed light on the instrument panel together with
the message on the reconfigurable multifunction
display. In this case contact a Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible.
The performance of the system, in terms of active safety should not induce the
