ABS SYSTEM
ABS is an integral part of the braking system
which prevents, whatever the road conditions and
force applied to the brake pedal, the wheels from
locking and consequently sliding under braking,
thus ensuring that the car remains under control
even during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force
Distribution) completes the system allowing the
brake force to be distributed between the front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum efficiency
of the braking system, a bedding-in period of
about 500 km is needed: during this period it is
better to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve
it; you should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS system has come
into action because the brake pedal pulsates
slightly and the system gets noisier: it means that
the car speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
WARNING
When the ABS cuts in and you feel
the brake pedal pulsating, do not
remove your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
WARNING
If the ABS system is activated, this
indicates that the traction of the tires
on the road is nearing its limit. You must
slow down to a speed compatible with the
available wheel traction.

When the CITY function is on, the steering wheel
effort is lighter, parking operations are easier:
therefore this function is particularly useful for
driving in city centres.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance
and safety, invalidate warranty and also
result in non-compliance of the car with
type approval requirements.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres
requiring a lot of steering, the steering may
become harder; this is normal and is due to the
intervention of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating, so no
intervention is required. When the car is used
again later on, the power steering will work
normally.
WARNING
Before starting any servicing
operation, stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition switch to
operate the steering lock, particularly when
the wheels do not touch the ground. If this
is not possible (for example if the key needs
to be turned to MAR-ON or the engine must
be running), remove the main fuse that
protects the electric power steering.
