Driving assist systems

To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following sys-
tems operate automatically in response to various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and
should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle.
 ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if
the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface
 Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation
 VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces
 TRC (Traction Control) (if equipped)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the drive wheels from spin-
ning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads
 Hill-start assist control
Except hybrid vehicle (vehicles with a Stop & Start system and a
Multidrive)
Helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward when the brake
pedal is released to restart the engine
