2-4. Using other driving systems

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)

Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning

on slippery road surfaces.

TRAC (Traction Control)

Maintains drive power and prevent the front wheels from spinning when

starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.

When VSC and TRAC are operating

If the vehicle is in danger of slip-

ping or the front wheels spin, the

indicator flashes to indicate that

VSC/TRAC have been engaged.
