UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 129 WARNING! To help keep your vehicle under control, do not use Speed Control under these conditions: • When it is not possible to keep your vehicle at a set speed. • On slippery roads, such as on snow or ice. • In heavy or varying traffic volume, in traffic that varies in speed, or on winding roads. • Be sure to turn the Speed Control switch to the OFF position when not in use to avoid accidental engagement. ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system that includes ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System), TCS (Traction Control System), BAS (Brake Assist System), ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation), and ESP (Electronic Stability Program). All five systems work together to enhance vehicle stability and control in various driving conditions, and are commonly referred to as ESP. ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) This system aids the driver in maintaining vehicle control under adverse braking conditions. The system controls hydraulic brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up and help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces during braking. Refer to "Anti-Lock Brake System" in Section 5 of this manual for more information about ABS. 3
