Driving your vehicle

The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

monitors information from various vehicle

sensors and then compares the driver's

commands with the actual behavior of the

vehicle. If an unstable condition occurs - a

sudden evasive movement for example -

ESC intervenes within fractions of a

second via the engine computer and

brake system and attempts to stabilize

the vehicle.

ESC operation

ESC ON condition

• When the ignition is turned

ON, ESC and ESC OFF indi-

cator lights illuminate for

approximately 3 seconds,

then ESC is turned on.

• Press the ESC OFF button

for at least half a second after

turning the ignition ON to turn

ESC off. (ESC OFF indicator

will illuminate). To turn the

ESC on, press the ESC OFF

button (ESC OFF indicator

light will go off).

• When starting the engine,

you may hear a slight ticking

sound. This is the ESC per-

forming an automatic system

self-check and does not indi-

cate a problem.

When operating

When the ESC is in operation,

ESC indicator light blinks.

• When the Electronic Stability

Control is operating properly,

you can feel a slight pulsation

in the vehicle. This is only the

effect of brake control and indi-

cates nothing unusual.

or slippery road, pressing the

accelerator pedal may not

cause the engine rpm (revo-

lutions per minute) to
