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 optimally on
the front axle.
The activation of the Traction Plus system generates
the differential locking effect on the front axle
through the braking system, to optimise traction on
irregular terrain.
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.
OPERATION
When the engine is started the system is
deactivated.
To activate the system, press the T+ button fig. 110:
the LED on the button switches on and the display
shows a dedicated message.
The system operates at speeds below 30 km/h: when
this speed is exceeded, it deactivates automatically
(the LED on the button stays on) and reactivates
as soon as the speed drops below 30 km/h.
To deactivate the system, once activated, press the
T+ button again.Traction Plus system fault
If the system is faulty, theESCwarning light on the
instrument panel switches on constantly.
