UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 129

ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic
brake control system that includes ABS (Anti-Lock Brake
System), TCS (Traction Control System), BAS (Brake
Assist System), ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation), and
ESP (Electronic Stability Program). All five systems work
together to enhance vehicle stability and control in vari-
ous driving conditions, and are commonly referred to as
ESP.

ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)

This system aids the driver in maintaining vehicle control
under adverse braking conditions. The system controls
hydraulic brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up and
help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces during braking.
Refer to "Anti-Lock Brake System" in Section 5 of this
manual for more information about ABS.
