STARTING AND DRIVING ELECTRONIC MODULATED SUSPENSION This electronic modulated suspension adjusts the damping effect on the shock absorbers with the control switch. Select one of the 4 modes which is suited to the driving conditions with the control switch to provide good riding comfort and stability. TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM The traction control system automatically helps prevent the spinning of front wheels when the vehicle is started or accelerated on slippery road surfaces. When the ignition key is turned to "ON", the system automatically turns on. CAUTION Under certain slippery road conditions, full traction of the vehicle and power against front wheels cannot be maintained, even though the traction control system is in operation. Do not drive the vehicle under any speed or maneuvering conditions which may cause the vehicle to lose traction control. In situations where the road surface is covered with ice or snow, your vehicle should be fitted with snow tires or tire chains. Always drive at an appropriate and cautious speed for the present road conditions. 1 For sporty type driving such as on winding mountain 2 3 4 5 6 roads and high speed driving For moderate high speed driving For ordinary driving such as in the city traffic For driving on a bumpy road Soft Firm 269
