✽
NOTICE
When ignition switch is turned to ON, the
indicator light illuminates, then goes off if
ESC system is operating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks whenever
ESC is operating.

either the ESC is turned off with the but-
ton, or ESC fails to operate when turned
on.

dynamometer, ensure that the ESC is
turned off (ESC OFF light illuminat-

vent the vehicle speed from increas-
ing, and result in false diagnosis.
