ESP (ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM)
SYSTEM
Switch

The Electronic Vehicle Stability Control Program (ESP) is a
supplementary driving safety system when your vehicle is un-
stably moving in a certain situation, such as during a sharp
corner. The ESP applies brakes on a certain wheel(s) or con-
trols the engine torque to compensate vehicle stability. These
actions help your vehicle avoid dangerous situations. The ESP
functions automatically, working only in very unstable
conditions; it does not operate under normal driving
conditions. If the ESP is engaged, the ESP warning light will
flicker on the instrument cluster and a warning alarm will
sound.
CAUTION
• If the ESP warning light comes on, the ESP related system is
defective. Make sure to check the vehicle at the nearest
Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.
• The ESP system does not operate during reverse driving.
• The ESP system activates when the vehicle is unstable to cor-
rect the vehicle stability. When the ESP warning lamp and the
warning alarm turn on, reduce the speed and pay extra atten-
tion to the road.
• The ESP system is only a supplementary device for the vehicle.
When the vehicle exceeds its physical limits, it cannot be
controlled. Do not rely on the system. Keep driving safely.
• When ESP is applied, you may feel some noise or vibration from
the brake pedal or other relevant systems. They are caused by
pressure changes in the relevant systems.
