Driving
■
ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem)
Helps to prevent wheel lock
when the brakes are applied
suddenly, or if the brakes are
applied while driving on a slip-
pery road surface
■
Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake
pedal is depressed when the
system detects a panic stop sit-
uation
■
VSC (Vehicle Stability Con-
trol)
Helps the driver to control skid-
ding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road sur-
faces.
■
Enhanced VSC (Enhanced
Vehicle Stability Control)
Provides cooperative control of
the ABS, TRAC, VSC and
EPS.Helps to maintain direc-
tional stability when swerving on
slippery road surfaces by con-
trolling steering performance.
■
Secondary Collision Brake
When the airbag sensor detects
a collision, the brakes and stop
lights are automatically con-
trolled to reduce the vehicle
speed and that helps reduce the
possibility of further damage
due to a secondary collision.
■
TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power
and prevent the drive wheels
from spinning when starting the
vehicle or accelerating on slip-
pery roads
■
Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward
movement of the vehicle when
starting on an uphill
■
EPS (Electric Power Steer-
ing)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort
needed to turn the steering
wheel.
■
When the TRAC/VSC systems
are operating
The slip indicator light will flash
while the TRAC/VSC systems are
operating.
Driving assist systems
To keep driving safety and
performance, the following
systems operate automati-
cally in response to various
driving situations. Be
aware, however, that these
systems are supplementary
and should not be relied
upon too heavily when oper-
ating the vehicle.
