Stop-start system 3 115.Ride control systems
Traction Control system The Anti-Slip Regulator (ASR) is a
component of the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC).
ASR improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type of
road surface or tyre grip, by
preventing the drive wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the drive wheels starts to spin, engine output is reduced and
the wheel spinning the most is braked
individually. This considerably
improves the driving stability of the
vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
ASR is operational after each engine
start as soon as the control indicator
R extinguishes.
When ASR operates, R flashes.
9 Warning
Do not let this special safety
feature tempt you into taking risks
when driving.
