ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system controlling the
car stability in the event of tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when
grip conditions of the road surfaces change.
ESP SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the warning light
á on
the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car
is in critical stability and grip conditions.
ESP SYSTEM OPERATION
The ESP system is automatically activated when the car
is started and cannot be de-activated.
WARNING
The performance of the system, in terms of active safety should not induce the
driver to take pointless and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in any case
always be adapted to the conditions of the road surface, visibility an traffic. Road
safety is always the driver’s responsibility.
