Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle. n Multi Terrain 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, or in offroad conditions (such as rough roads, sand and mud). n Brake assist Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is depressed, when the system detects a panic stop situation. n VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning on slippery road surfaces. n Active TRAC (Traction Control) Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the 4 wheels from spinning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads. n Hill-start assist control Helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting on an incline or slippery slope. n KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System) KDSS helps to ensure ride comfort and handling response by using a hydraulic control system to control the suspension stabilizer bars in response to road surface and driving conditions during cornering or offroad driving. n VGRS (Variable Gear Ratio Steering) (if equipped) Helps to adjust the wheel turning angle in accordance with the vehicle speed and steering wheel movement. n PCS (Pre-Collision System) (if equipped) →P. 282 274 L/C200_U (OM60G36U)
