fig. 116

When travelling on snowy roads with snow chains, it may

be helpful to turn the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,

if the drive wheels skid when moving off, you get better

traction.

MSR system (engine drive regulation)

This is an integral part of the

ASR system that, in the event

of sudden gear shifting on hills, cuts in to provide torque

to the engine, thus preventing excessive driving wheel drag

that, especially in poor grip conditions, can lead to loss of

stability.

Switching the system

on/off fig. 116

The

ASR system switches on automatically each time the

engine is started.

When travelling, the

ASR can be switched off and on again

by pressing button located on the dashboard fig. 116.

When the ASR is switched off, this is shown by the LED

on the button coming on and by the relevant message ap-

pearing on the multifunction display, where provided.

If you switch off the

ASR during a journey, it will come back

on automatically when the engine is next started.

CONTENTS

Do not take unnecessary risks, even if your

vehicle is fitted with this system. Your dri-

ving style must always be suited to the road con-

ditions, visibility and traffic. The driver is always

ultimately responsible for road safety.

WARNING

For the correct operation of the ASR system, the tyres

must absolutely be the same make and type on all wheels,

in perfect condition and, above all, of the type, make and

size specified.

FAILURE INDICATIONS

In the event of a failure, the ASR will be automatically

switched off and warning light á will appear permanent-

ly on the instrument panel along with a message on the

multifunction display, where provided (see “Warning lights

and messages”). In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as

soon as possible.
