ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation)
WARN ING!
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 vehicle’s speed
are sufficient to potentially cause wheel lift, it then
applies the approp riate brake and may also red uce
engine power to lessen the chance that wheel lift will
occur. ERM will only intervene during very severe or 5
evasive driving maneu vers. 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 other vehicles.
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. BAS cannot preven t accid ents, including
those resu ltin g from excessive speed in turns, drivin g
on very slip pery surfaces, or hydrop lan ing. Only a
safe, atten tive, and skillfu l driver can preven t acci-
dents. The capabilities of a BAS-eq uipped 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.
NOTE: ERM is disabled anytim e the ESP is in “Full Off”
mode. Refer to ESP (Electronic Stability Program ) for a
complete explanation of the available ESP modes.
