Ess (Emergency Stop Signaling) System - Yamaha MT-09 Owner's Manual

Special features
ESS (emergency stop signal-
ing) system
When sudden deceleration occurs this
system automatically activates to
cause all turn signal lights to flash rap-
idly.
This provides additional warning to
4
surrounding vehicles that your vehicle
is decelerating rapidly.
The ESS system then deactivates un-
der the following conditions:
 When the brakes are released.
 When sudden deceleration is no
longer detected.
WARNING
The ESS system is not a collision
prevention system. Avoid unneces-
sary hard braking and prioritize safe
driving.
TIP
 The ESS system only activates
when it detects sudden braking
while the vehicle is traveling at
speeds of 50 km/h (31 mi/h) or
higher.
 ESS does not activate when the
EAUA1773
hazard lights are already activat-
ed.
 If the ESS is activated while one of
the turn signal lights is already
flashing, the ESS takes priority,
causing all turn signals to flash
rapidly.
 ESS does not operate when the
ABS indicator light is on.
