The ASR/ESP systems offer
increased safety during normal
driving, but should not incite the
driver to take risks or to drive at high
s p e e d .
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations

not take the place of vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not remove the
need to have the tyre pressure
checked regularly (including the spare
wheel), to ensure that the dynamic
performance of the vehicle remains
at its best and to avoid premature wear
of the tyres, in particular in the case
of arduous driving (heavy load, high
