Driving06
The system uses a computer and sensors, which
determine the optimal level of shock absorption
to be applied to each shock absorber.
The system is also associated with a camera,
located at the top of the windscreen, constantly
monitoring the road condition. Based on the
information transmitted by the camera, the
system anticipates possible road defects.
The operation of the system depends on the
driving mode selected (depending on equipment).
For more information on the Driving modes,
please refer to the corresponding section.

lamp lights up on the instrument panel.
