Always check that the brake warning symbol is OFF before

parking brake is still applied.
• If the vehicle is parked on a hill and facing uphill, select first
gear and turn the steering wheel away from the curb.

reverse gear and turn the steering wheel towards the curb.

Dynamic Stability Control

Warning: It is the drivers responsibility to drive safely
according to the law and with due regard to prevailing
conditions.
Warning: DSC must never allow the driver to be tempted
into taking risks which could affect his or her safety or that of
other road users. DSC cannot overcome consequences of
applying too much engine power for prevailing conditions.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is a system designed to enhance
driving safety by improving the vehicle handling when the tires are at
the limits of their grip capabilities. This is achieved through the
reduction of engine torque and strategic application of the brakes at
individual wheels.
Driver Interface and Control
If repair or replacement of the steering or other surrounding
equipment is necessary, always refer to your Aston Martin
Dealer. If the centre position of the steering deviates, the DSC
may not operate correctly because there is a sensor in the
steering system which detects steering wheel position.
The DSC system may not operate correctly when using tire
chains or a temporary spare tire.
Use tires of the same manufacturer, brand, tread pattern and
correct size specified for this vehicle on all four road wheels. Do
not mix worn tires.
