The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on the wet or slick
road.

that of normal conditions

tance. Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, espe-
cially in the following situations.
●
When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads

Active TRAC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the Active TRAC is operating.
Do not drive the vehicle in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■
If the hill-start assist control does not operate effectively
Do not overly rely on the hill-start assist control. The hill-start assist control
may not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered in ice.
■
When Active TRAC, VSC and Trailer Sway Control are off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As there are systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driving force,
do not turn off Active TRAC, VSC and Trailer Sway Control unless neces-
sary.
