Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
 N_CT25D016_1_ER |
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to stabilize the vehicle during cornering manoeuvres.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors such as speed, road conditions, and driver steering input can all affect whether Electronic Stability Control (ESC) will be effective in preventing loss of control.
Operation
-
Press the ESC OFF button for approximately half a second to turn Electronic Stability Control (ESC) off. ESC OFF indicator light (
) will appear and the warning chime will sound. -
To turn ESC on again, press the ESC OFF button. ESC OFF indicator light (
) will go off.
-
For maximum protection, always wear your seat belt. No system, no matter how advanced, can compensate for all driver error and/or driving conditions. Always drive responsibly.
-
Drive carefully even though your vehicle has Electronic Stability Control. It can only assist you in maintaining control under certain circumstances.
-
When Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is deactivated, the vehicle will lose the traction and stability if the vehicle is driven by abrupt steering wheel control. It is possible that the tyre may make a collision with the connected parts of the tyre. We recommend that you do not turn off Electronic Stability Control (ESC) whilst driving the vehicle for your safety.
-
A click sound may be heard in the vehicle compartment when the vehicle begins to move after the vehicle is started. These conditions are normal and indicate that the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is functioning properly.
-
When operating the vehicle on a dynamometer, ensure that the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is turned off (ESC OFF light on). If the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is left on, it may prevent the vehicle speed from increasing, and result in false diagnosis.
-
Turning the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) off does not affect Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) or brake system operation.
