Drive Control Systems

Traction Control system (TC) 3

Th e T C (Tra cti o n Control) system 3 prevents

the driving wheels from spinning, irrespective

of the road condition and tyre grip.

The system monitors the rotational speed of

all wheels. As soon as at least one driving

whee l starts to spin, the en gine output is

re duced (the sound of the en gine changes)

and the spinning wheel is braked. This

improves the ve hicle's dire ctional control and

driving power, particularly on snow and ice as

well as on wet or slippery roads.

The TC is re ady for operat ion as soon as the

ignition is switched on and the control

in dic ato r = goes out.

When the TC is operating, = flashes.

The vehicle is now in a critical situation; the

TC allows you to keep control of the vehicle

and reminds you to match your speed to the

road conditions.

Do not le t this spec ia l safety f eature tempt

you into taking risks when driving.

Traf fic sa fety ca n only be a ch ie ved by

adopting a responsible driving style.
