Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and dynamic stability
control (DSC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction control)   optimises   traction   to   prevent   skidding  
o

f   the   wheels,   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the  
d

riving   wheels   and   on   the   engine.
The electronic stability control acts on the
brake
  of   one   or   more   wheels   and   on   the   engine  
t

o   keep   the   vehicle   on   the   trajectory   required  
b

y   the   driver,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws   of  
p

hysics.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically each   time   the   vehicle   is   started.
They
  come   into   operation   in   the   event   of   a   grip

This
  is   indicated   by   flashing   of   this
