o  Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has different
surface height.
On slippery road surfaces, the traction
control system (TCS)  limits the drive
wheelsfromspinningexcessively,thus
helping the  car to accelerate.  It also
provides  sufficient driving  force  and
steering performance as the car turns
at accelerated speeds.
WARNING:
ABS(ESP)willnotpreventaccidents
due to improper or dangerous driv-
ingmaneuvers.Eventhoughvehicle
control  is improved  during  emer-
gency braking,  always  maintain a
safe distance between you and ob-
jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during extreme
road conditions.
The   braking   distance    for  cars
equipped with an anti-lock braking
systemmaybelongerthanforthose
without it in the following road con-
ditions.
During  these  conditions,  the  ve-
hicle should  be driven at  reduced
speeds. The  safety features  of an
ABS(ESP)equippedvehicleshould
not be tested by high speed driving
or cornering. This could  endanger
the safety of yourself or others.
SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning
excessively  during  starting  or  while
making accelerated turns on slippery
roads to avoid losing the driving force
of the front wheels.
Driving hints
TCS does  not actively apply  brakes.
Be  sure to  decelerate  the car  suffi-
ciently before entering curves.
