Manual opening of the
second swing door
Pull handle C fig. 114 in the direction of
the arrow.
The rear swing-doors are equipped with
a spring loaded system that locks
them at an approx. angle of 90 degrees
during opening.
Electrical closure from
inside
Close the two rear swing doors (first the
left, then the right) and press button D
fig. 115 located on the window control
panel.The opening angle of the two doors
may be increased for more convenient
loading and unloading. To carry out
this operation, press button A fig. 116;
the doors can then be opened by about
180 degrees.

5)
The vehicle can be equipped with a
retractable rear footboard A fig. 117 to
aid the lifting and lowering of the rear
load compartment.
The footboard can slide under the
vehicle when not used so as not to
increase the vehicle external
dimensions.
The footboard slides manually both
when opening and closing.

ABS
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking or slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The system intervenes when braking
and the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The ABS ensures the direction of the
vehicle while braking and optimises the
braking distances at the same time.
The system also improves control and
stability of the car when braking on a
surface where the grip of the left and
right wheels varies, or when braking on
corners.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribution),
which distributes the braking action
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.
50)
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS 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.

MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This system is an integral part of the
ABS and intervenes, if there is sudden
downshifting, restoring torque to the
engine, thereby preventing excessive
drive at the drive wheels which,
especially in poor grip conditions, could
lead to a loss in stability of the vehicle.
WARNING
50) The ABS exploits the grip
available to the full, but it cannot
improve it. Therefore, you should
take great care when driving on
slippery surfaces, without taking
unnecessary risks.51) When the ABS intervenes and
you notice the brake pedal
pulsating, keep the pedal pushed
down and don’t be alarmed. This
will help you to stop in the
shortest distance possible,
depending on the road conditions.
52) If the ABS intervenes, it means
you have almost reached the grip
limit between the tyres and the
road surface: slow down to make
sure that you drive in accordance
with the available grip
53) The ABS can’t overrule the
natural laws of physics, and can’t
increase the grip available
according to the condition of the
road.
54) The ABS cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners,
driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
55) The capability of the ABS must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as
to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
56) For the correct operation of the
ABS, it is essential that the tyres
are of the same make and type on
all wheels, in perfect condition
and, above all, of the specified
type and dimensions.
