Electronic Stability
Program (ESP)
The ESP (Electronic Stability Program) 3
improves driving stability when necessary,
independently of the type of road surface
and the tyre grip. It also includes the
Traction Control system function.
The system monitors vehicle movements.
As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve
(understeers/oversteers) engine output is
reduced (the sound of the engine changes)
and individual wheels are specifically
braked. This considerably improves the
driving stability of the vehicle on slippery
road surfaces.
The ESP is ready for operation as soon as
the ignition is switched on and the control
indicator v goes out.
When the ESP comes into action, v flashes.
The vehicle is now in a critical situation;
the ESP assists you to keep control of the
vehicle and reminds you to match your
speed to the road conditions.
