Speed-dependent steering wheel

resistance

Speed-dependent power steering increases
the steering wheel resistance in pace with
the vehicle's speed, which can help give the
driver an enhanced feeling of control and sta-
bility. Steering is stiffer on highways. When
parking and at low speeds, it will be easier to
move the steering wheel.

Reduced power

In rare situations, the power steering may
need to work at reduced power and the steer-
ing wheel may then feel more difficult to
move. This may happen when the power
steering becomes too hot and needs to be
temporarily cooled. It can also happen if there
is a disturbance in power supply.

If there is reduced power, the
message

Power steering

Assistance temporarily
reduced

and this symbol are

shown in the instrument
panel.

While the power steering is working at
reduced power, the driver support functions
and systems with steering assistance are not

When the system has inter-
vened to apply the brakes, a
pulsing sound may be heard

and the vehicle may accelerate more slowly
than expected when the accelerator pedal is
depressed.

The system consists of the following sub-func-
tions:

•

Stability control

•

Spin control and active yaw control

•

Engine drag control

•

Trailer Stability Assist

Connected Safety communicates information
between your vehicle and other vehicles via
the Internet

11

. The function is designed to

notify the driver of any hazardous road condi-
tions ahead.

The function can notify the driver if another
vehicle further down the road has activated its
hazard warning flashers or detected slippery
road conditions. You will also be notified if
your own vehicle detects slippery road condi-
tions.

Connected Safety can assist the driver with
the following:

•

Hazard warning flashers alert

•

Slippery road alerts

Connected Safety communication between
vehicles only works for vehicles that are equip-
ped with the function and have it activated.

Hazard warning flashers alert

If your vehicle's hazard warning flashers are
activated, information on this can be sent to
other vehicles approaching your location.

When your vehicle
approaches a vehicle with its
hazard warning flashers on,
this symbol will appear in the
instrument panel.

In vehicles equipped with a head-up display,
the warning symbols for Connected Safety
will also be displayed there.

Slippery road alerts

If your own car detects reduced friction
between your tires and the road, information
on this can be sent to vehicles approaching
your own car's position.

As the vehicle approaches
the area affected, this symbol
will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel to alert the driver
of slippery road conditions.
Drivers of other vehicles
receiving information via

Connected Safety will receive similar notifica-
tions as they approach the area.

In vehicles equipped with a head-up display,
the warning symbols for Connected Safety
will also be displayed there.

Connected Safety limitations

Information on vehicles with activated hazard
warning flashers or which have detected slip-
pery road conditions is not always communi-
cated between all vehicles in the affected
area.

This may be the case if:

•

No or insufficient Internet connection.

•

The maneuvers (steering wheel move-
ments, acceleration or braking) made by
the vehicles on slippery surfaces are too
weak for friction between the tires and
road to be detected.

•

Vehicles that have detected slippery road
conditions or activated hazard warning
flashers have not activated the function.

•

Vehicles that have detected slippery road
conditions or activated hazard warning
flashers are not equipped with the func-
tion.

•

Insufficient GPS/satellite navigation may
prevent warnings.
