WARNING
The HBA system cannot overrule the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
WARNING
The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due
to excessive speed on corners, driving on
low-grip surfaces or aquaplaning.
WARNING
The capability of the HBA must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously,
in such a way as to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
iTPMS System (indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System iTPMS
can monitor the tyre inflation status through the
wheel speed sensors. The system warns the driver if
one or more tyres are flat by switching on the
warning light on the instrument panel and
a warning message on the display, along with an
acoustic signal.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can indicate its
position: it is in any case recommended to check the
pressure on all four tyres. This indication is displayed
also when turning the engine off and on until the
“Reset” procedure is carried out.
“Reset” procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-learning" phase (with
length depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20 minutes)
which starts when the “Reset” procedure is carried
out.
The “Reset” procedure must be carried out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
