SYSTEM ACTIVATION

The ESP system comes on automatically when the vehi-

cle is started and cannot be turned off.

FAILURE INDICATIONS

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

switched off and the á warning light will come on per-

manently on the instrument panel along with a message on

the multifunction display (for versions/markets where pro-

vided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section). The

LED on the ASR OFF button will also light up. Contact a

Fiat Dealership as soon as possible if this happens.

ESP SYSTEM

(Electronic Stability Program)

(for versions/markets where provided)

This is an electronic system that controls car stability in

the event of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain direction-

al control.

The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when the

grip conditions of road surfaces change.

The MSR system (adjustment of the engine braking torque

during gear changes) and the HBA system (automatic in-

crease in the braking pressure during emergency brak-

ing) are present with ESP, ASR and Hill Holder systems

(for versions/markets where provided).

SYSTEM INTERVENTION

This is signalled by warning light á flashing on the instru-

ment panel to inform the driver that the car is experiencing

critical stability and grip conditions.
