98 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE WARNING! Do not drive the vehicle at speeds above 62 mph (100 km/h) if the red spoiler warning indicator is illuminated. You could have reduced vehicle stability and control. BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM (BAS) WARNING! BAS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking efficiency beyond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded. The BAS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, following another vehicle too closely, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of a BAS-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 BAS is designed to maximize the vehicle's braking capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The system applies maximum power boost to the brakes more quickly in emergency braking conditions than might otherwise be afforded solely by the driver's braking style. This can help reduce braking distances. The WARNING! Keep hands and fingers away from the spoiler and spoiler linkage when the spoiler is deploying or retracting. The linkage could pinch your fingers and cause serious injury.
