ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic

brake control system that include Anti-Lock Brake Sys-

tem (ABS), Traction Control System (TCS), Brake Assist

System (BAS), and the Electronic Stability Program (ESP).

All four of these systems work together to enhance

vehicle stability and control in various driving condi-

tions.

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)

This system aids the driver in maintaining vehicle control

under adverse braking conditions by controlling hydrau-

lic brake pressure. This prevents wheel lock-up to help

avoid skidding on slippery surfaces during braking.

Refer to “Anti-Lock Brake System” in “Starting and

Operating” for further information.

WARNING!

The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics

from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the

traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The

ABS cannot prevent accidents, including those re-

sulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on

very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. Only a safe,

attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents.

The capabilities of an ABS-equipped vehicle must

never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner

that could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of

others.

Traction Control System (TCS)

This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each

driven wheel. If wheel spin is detected, brake pressure is

applied to the slipping wheel(s) and engine power is

reduced to provide enhanced acceleration and stability.
