Adjustable steering force*

Speed related power steering causes the
steering wheel force to increase with the
speed of the car in order to give the driver
enhanced sensitivity.
On motorways the steering feels firmer.
Steering is light and requires no extra effort
when parking and at low speed.
The driver can choose between three differ-
ent levels of steering force for road respon-
siveness or steering sensitivity in the menu
system MY CAR, MY CAR (p. 110):
•
Steering force
Once there, search for
level Low Medium
and select ,
This setting is not accessible when the car is
moving.
NOTE
In certain situations the power steering
may become too hot and then needs to be
temporarily cooled - during this time the
power steering operates with reduced
power and turning the steering wheel may
then be perceived to be slightly heavier.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced
steering assistance the combined instru-
ment panel shows a message.
