Speed-dependent steering force
Reduced power
In rare situations, the power steering may need to work at reduced power, and turning the steering wheel may then seem slightly heavier. This may occur when the power steering becomes too hot and then needs temporary cooling. It may also occur if the power supply is disrupted.
In the event of reduced power, the message Power steering Assistance temporarily reduced is shown, as well as this symbol in the driver display.
While the power steering is working at reduced power, the driver support functions and steering assistance systems are not available.
Warning
Change the steering force level*
Steering wheel resistance can be adjusted when using INDIVIDUAL drive mode.
Steering wheel resistance selection can only be accessed if the car is stationary or is moving at low speed and in a straight line.
