The acceptance by the system of the
requested driving mode is signalled by
the LED, located besides the symbol,
coming on, and by the corresponding
symbol appearing on the instrument
panel display.
When the engine is started, the system
usually maintains the driving mode that
was active before the engine was
stopped. For versions/markets where
provided, on start-up, the system is set
to the "Auto" mode.
"Auto" MODE
Recommended mode for normal
driving, aimed at comfort and safety in
normal grip and driving conditions. This
mode also reduces fuel consumption,
since it automatically disconnects the
transmission from the rear wheels if the
road and driving conditions allow it, in
addition to changing drive torque
distribution between the front and rear
axles.
Activation
Starting with the "All Weather" mode
active, turn the ring-nut anticlockwise
and hold it in this position for at least
half a second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out atthe same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting with the "Sport" mode active,
turn the ring-nut clockwise and hold it
in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out at
the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
“All Weather” MODE
This driving mode is intended for safety
in poor vehicle grip conditions
(wet/slippery road surface, rain, snow).
It is also recommended for driving on
unpaved roads or off-road.
Activation
Starting with the "Auto" mode active,
turn the ring-nut clockwise and hold it
in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out at
the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selectedmode is shown on the display. The LED
of the mode selected previously will go
out at the same time. Once released,
the ring-nut returns to the central
position.
"Sport" MODE
This mode gives the most enjoyable
sporty driving experience, however, it
increases fuel consumption. Traction is
optimised to improve the car's
road-holding, also when cornering.
Activation
Starting with the "Auto" mode active,
turn the ring-nut anticlockwise and hold
it in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED

the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting with the "All Weather" mode
active, turn the ring nut clockwise,
keeping it in this position for at least half
a second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
of the mode selected previously will go
out at the same time. Once released,
the ring-nut returns to the central
position.
