Driving and operating
Brake assist
If the brake pedal is pressed quickly
and forcefully, maximum brake force
is automatically applied (full braking).
Maintain steady pressure on the
brake pedal for as long as full
braking is required. Maximum brake
force is automatically reduced when
the brake pedal is released.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
The HSA system assists in
preventing rollback when driving off,
while on an incline.
1. Release the brake pedal.
2. Press the accelerator pedal.
The brakes remain on for
approximately 2 seconds.
Ride control systems
Traction Control System
(TCS)
TCS improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type
of road surface or tyre grip, by
preventing the driving wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the driving wheels start
to spin, engine output is reduced and
the wheels are braked individually.
This considerably improves the
driving stability of the vehicle on
slippery road surfaces.
TCS is activated as soon as the
ignition is turned on.
Warning
Do not let this special safety
feature tempt you into taking
risks when driving.
Adapt speed to the road
conditions.
Operation
TCS can be deactivated when
spinning of drive wheels is required:
1. Press
= illuminates
To reactivate TCS:
1. Press
again
TCS is also reactivated the next
time the ignition is turned on.
