ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation)
NOTE:    Anytim e  the  ESP  system   is in  the   “Full  Off”
mode,  ERM is disabled  . Refer to ESP (Electronic  Stability
Program ) for a complete   explanation  of the  available  ESP
modes.
This  system   anticip ates  the  potential   for  wheel   lift  by
monitoring    the  driver ’s  steering   wheel   inp ut  and   the
speed  of the vehicle.  When  ERM determ ines  that the  rate
of change  of the  steering  wheel  angle and  vehicles  speed
are  sufficient    to  potentially    cause   wheel   lift,  it  then
applies  the  brake  of the approp  riate  wheel and  may  also
red uce engine  power  to  lessen  the chance  that  wheel  lift
will occur. ERM will  only intervene   during  very severe  or
evasive  driving   maneu vers.

Many   factors,  such   as  veh icle  load ing,  road  condi-
tion s  and  drivin  g  condition  s, influ  ence  the  chance
that  wheel   lift   or  rollover   may  occur.  ERM  cannot
preven t  all  wheel   lift  or  rollovers,   esp ecially   those
that  involve   leavin g the  road way  or  strik ing  objects
or oth er  veh icles. Only   a safe,  atten tive,  and  skillfu l
driver   can preven  t  accid ents.  The  capabilities   of  an
ERM-equipped    veh icle must   never  be exploited   in  a
reck less  or  dangerou  s  manner   which   could  jeop ar-
dize  the  user’s  safety  or  the  safety  of oth ers.
ERM can  only  red uce the  chance  of wheel  lift  occurring
during   severe  or  evasive   driving  maneu  vers.  It  cannot
prevent   wheel   lift  due   to  other   factors   such  as   road
cond itions,  leaving   the  road way   or  striking   objects  or
