UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 91 If the malfunction indicator light stays illuminated, have the BAS and ESP checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP) The ESP system corrects for over/understeering of the vehicle by applying brakes to the appropriate wheel. Engine torque is also limited. The ESP warning light, located in the instrument cluster, starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the wheels begin to spin. 3 WARNING! ESP cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded. The ESP cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESP-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of others. The ESP enhances directional control and reduces driving wheel spin of the vehicle under various driving conditions.
