Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESP in the case of pronounced unders-
teering (loss of front axle road holding).
Traction control ASR
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Deactivating the function
Deactivating the ASR traction control
function also deactivates the ESP func-
tion (refer to the following page).

Dispositifs de correction et d'assistance à la conduite (H79 - Dacia)
Special feature of 4-wheel
drive and 2-wheel drive
vehicles (depending on the
vehicle)
Disabling the ESP function
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
ù
The warning light on the instru-
ment panel comes on to warn you of
this.
If you deactivate this function, the ASR
traction control function will also be de-
activated.
As the 'ESP and ASR provide en-
hanced safety, it is not advisable to
drive with the function switched off.
Correct this as soon as possible by
pressing switch 1 again.
