Creating an adequate driving wheel slip by
deactivating the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system temporarily may help to escape
from the following situations. Use the
Vehicle Dynamics Control OFF mode as
necessary.
. a standing start on a steeply sloping
road with a snowy, gravel-covered, or
otherwise slippery surface
. ext rication o f the vehicl e when its
wheels are stuck in mud or deep snow
Yo u shou ld not deactivate the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system except under
the above-mentioned situations.
NOTE
. If you turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position with the Vehi-
cle Dynamics Control system deacti-
vated, the system will be automatically
reactivated the next time the engine is
started.
. If you press and hold the switch for
30 seconds or longer, the Vehicle
Dynamics Control OFF indicator light
turns off, the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system is activated, and the system
ignores a ny further pressing of the
switch. To make the switch usable
again, turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position and restart the
engine.
. When the Vehicle Dynamics Control
OFF mode is selected, the vehicles
running performance is comparable
with that of a vehicle that does not have
a Vehicle Dynamics Control system. Do

Control system except when absolutely
necessary.
. Even when the Vehicle Dynamics
Control OFF mode is selected, compo-
nents of the brake control system may
still activate. When the brake control
system is activated, the Vehicle Dy-
namics Control operation indicator

Tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) (U.S.-spec.
models)
Low tire pressure warning light
The tire pressure monitoring system pro-
vides the driver with a warning message by
sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel when tire pressure
is severely low.
The tire pressure monitoring system will
activate only when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 20 mph (32 km/h). Also, this
system may not react immediately to a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example,
a blow-out caused by running over a sharp
object).
