(If equipped)
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
system is designed to stabilize the
vehicle during cornering maneuvers. ESP
checks where you are steering and where
the vehicle is actually going. ESP applies
the brakes on individual wheels and
intervenes with the engine management
system to stabilize the vehicle.
V NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the vehicle
begins to move after the engine is start-
ed. These conditions are normal and
indicate that the Electronic Stability
Program System is functioning proper-
ly.
