Electronic stability control

(ESC)

The ESC system is an electronic

vehicle stability control system and

driving safety supplementary system

that helps to avoid dangerous

situations by applying brakes on the

wheels or the engine torque to

compensate vehicle stability when it

is extremely unstable under

conditions such as sharp cornering

or quick lane change. The ESC

function automatically works when

your vehicle is in a very unstable

condition. The ESC system does not

work under normal driving

conditions.

When the ignition is switched ON,

the ESC active & warning lamp and

ESC off indicator come on and go off

after about 4 seconds.

The ESC active & warning lamp

blinks while ESC is operating and

illuminates to indicate that there is a

malfunction in the system. If this

condition occurs, consult a repairer

as soon as possible.

SeeElectronic stability control (ESC)

indicator light on page 111.

Caution

If you choose to install winter tyres

on your vehicle, be sure to only

use winter tyres that are

recommended by by a repairer.

Using the wrong winter tyres may

adversely affect Stability System

performance.

See authorised repairer for details

regarding winter tyre availability

and proper tyre selection.

Caution

If the ESC active & warning lamp

comes on, the ESC system is

defective. Make sure to consult a

repairer as soon as possible.
