DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS
A
Rear wheel steering
On equipped vehicles, this system,
when the vehicle is being driven, steers
the rear wheels according to driving
conditions: at low speed this system
offers manoeuvrability, at higher speeds
it optimises stability.
When driving at low speeds, the rear
wheels steer in the opposite direction to
the front wheels (figure A) to increase
the vehicle's manoeuvrability. This is
used when driving in towns, on winding
roads, during parking manoeuvres, etc.

(11/11)
B
When driving at higher speeds, the rear
wheels steer in the same direction as
the front wheels (figure B) to optimise
the vehicle's stability. This is useful
when changing lanes or when corner-
ing etc.
Note: The system configuration (agil-
ity, etc.) depends on the mode selected
in the "Multi-Sense" menu (please refer
to the information on "Multi-Sense" in
Section 2).
