The steering column is jammed.
When stopped, turn the steering wheel in both direc-

changes the gear change recommendations
to facilitate more efficient driving.
In models fitted with adaptive chassis control
(DCC)

OR: The steering column does not unlock or lock.
Turn off the ignition and turn it on again. Consider the
messages shown on the instrument panel display.
Do not continue driving if the steering column re-
mains locked after switching on the ignition. Seek
specialist assistance.
Dynamic chassis control (DCC)
The Individual profile can be configured ac-
cording to personal preferences. The other
profiles have a fixed configuration.
The DCC continuously adapts the damping
of the suspension system to the characteris-
tics of the road surface and the driving situa-
tion (speed, acceleration and steering wheel
angle) according to the selected driving pro-
file. The vehicle's dynamic behaviour is also
adapted to improve grip on curves and turn-
ing capacity. Within the Individual profile you
can also adjust the DCC level in a custom-
ised manner.
The control lamp should light up for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on. It
should go out once the engine is started.
