stability and traction between the tires and
the road surface.
Electronic stability control detects when a
wheel starts to spin or the vehicle starts to
skid and stabilizes the vehicle by braking
individual wheels, and/or limiting the engine
power output. This also assists when pulling
away on wet or slippery road surfaces and
stabilizes the vehicle when braking.
NOTE: Electronic stability control only
functions properly if wheels with the
recommended specification tires are
used.
Electronic stability control is activated
automatically as soon as the engine is
running.
WARNING: If the electronic stability
control warning illuminates, do not
deactivate Electronic Stability
Control. Adapt your driving style to
suit road and traffic conditions.

of Electronic Stability Control.
The traction control system reduces engine
torque to prevent the wheels from spinning. If
additional intervention is required to stop the
wheels from spinning, the vehicle will apply
the rear brakes individually. The traction
control system brakes individual drive wheels
to prevent them from spinning. This means
that the vehicle can accelerate on slippery
surfaces.
WARNING: The traction control
system cannot reduce the risk of an
accident if you drive too fast. The
traction control system is unable to
override the laws of physics.

Stability Control, the following
conditions result:
• the "ESC OFF! warning light illuminates
• the light on the ESC OFF button
illuminates
• Electronic Stability Control no longer
improves driving stability
• the engine!s torque is no longer limited
