Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System If the VSA system indicator comes on while driving, pull to the side of the road when it is safe, and turn off the engine. Reset the system by restarting the engine. If the VSA system indicator stays on, or comes back on while driving, have the VSA system inspected by your dealer. If the indicator does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), there may be a problem with the VSA system. Have your dealer inspect your vehicle as soon as possible. Without VSA, your vehicle will have normal braking and cornering ability, but it will not have VSA traction and stability enhancement. VSA Off Switch VSA OFF SWITCH VSA is turned on every time you start the engine, even if you turned it off the last time you drove the vehicle.

Driving This button is under the driver's side vent. Press it to turn the VSA system on or off. When VSA is off, the VSA Activation Indicator comes on as a reminder. Pressing the switch again turns the system back on. If you install winter tires, make sure they are the same size as those that were originally supplied with your vehicle. Exercise the same caution during winter driving as you would if your vehicle was not equipped with VSA. 159

When VSA is off, the VSA Activation
Indicator comes on as a reminder.
Pressing the switch again turns the
system back on.
VSA is turned on every time you
start the engine, even if you turned it
off the last time you drove the
vehicle.
Driving with varying tire or wheel
sizes may cause the VSA to
malfunction. When replacing tires,
make sure they are the same size
and type as your original tires (see
page
).
If the VSA system indicator comes
on while driving, pull to the side of
the road when it is safe, and turn off
the engine. Reset the system by
restarting the engine. If the VSA
system indicator stays on, or comes
back on while driving, have the VSA
system inspected by your dealer.
If the indicator does not come on
when the ignition switch is turned to
ON (II), there may be a problem
with the VSA system. Have your
dealer inspect your vehicle as soon
as possible.
Without VSA, your vehicle will have
normal braking and cornering ability,
but it will not have VSA traction and
stability enhancement.
This button is under the driver’s side
vent. Press it to turn the VSA system
on or off.
If you install winter tires, make sure
they are the same size as those that
were originally supplied with your
vehicle. Exercise the same caution
during winter driving as you would if
your vehicle was not equipped with
VSA.
