enabled.
When operating
WL_ESCOperatingLamp
When ESC is operating, the ESC indicator
light blinks:
• When you apply your brakes under
conditions that may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal.
• If Cruise Control has been used when
ESC activates, Cruise Control
automatically disengages. Refer to the
"Cruise Control (CC)" section in
chapter 7 (if equipped).
• When moving out of mud or driving on
a slippery road, the engine RPM
(revolutions per minute) may not
increase even if you depress the
accelerator pedal all the way. This is to
maintain the stability and traction of
the vehicle and does not indicate a
problem.
