STARTING AND OPERATING
Refer to “Electronic Stability Program (ESP)” in this
section for additional system inform ation and operating
instru ctions.
The Brake Assist System (BAS) is stand ard on vehicles
equ ipped with Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The
BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s braking capa-
bility during emergency braking maneu vers. The system
applies optimum pressu re to the brakes in emergency
braking cond itions that might otherw ise be afford ed
solely by the driver’s braking style. This can help red uce
braking distances. The BAS complements the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes very quickly
resu lts in the best BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of
the system , you must apply continu ous braking power
during the stop ping sequ ence. Do not red uce brake pedal
pressu re. Once the brake pedal is released , the BAS is
deactivated .
BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM (BAS) — IF EQUIPPED
WARN ING!
The BAS (Brak e Assist System ) cannot preven t the
natu ral law s of physics from actin g on the veh icle,
nor can it increase the traction afford ed by prevailin g
road condition s. The BAS cannot preven t accid ents,
including those resu ltin g from excessive speed in
turns, drivin g on very slip pery surfaces, or hydro-
plan ing. Only a safe, atten tive, and skillfu l driver can
preven t accid ents. The capabilities
of a BAS-
equipped veh icle must never be exploited in a reck -
less or dangerou s manner, which could jeop ard ize
the user’s safety or the safety of oth ers.
