ESC uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the vehicle

path intended by the driver and compares it to the actual

path of the vehicle. When the actual path does not match

the intended path, ESC applies the brake of the appro-

priate wheel to assist in counteracting the oversteer or

understeer condition.

• Oversteer - when the vehicle is turning more than

appropriate for the steering wheel position.

• Understeer - when the vehicle is turning less than

appropriate for the steering wheel position.

The “ESC Malfunction Indicator Light” located in the

instrument cluster will start to flash as soon as the tires lose

traction and the ESC system becomes active. The “ESC

Malfunction Indicator Light” also flashes when the TCS is

active. If the “ESC Malfunction Indicator Light” begins to

flash during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and

apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your

speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions.

WARNING!

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot prevent the

natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle,

nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing

road conditions. ESC cannot prevent accidents, in-

cluding those resulting from excessive speed in

turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro-

planing. ESC also cannot prevent accidents resulting

from loss of vehicle control due to inappropriate

driver input for the conditions. Only a safe, attentive,

and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capa-

bilities of an ESC equipped vehicle must never be

exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which

could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of

others.

The ESC system has two available operating modes in

AWD AUTO range and two-wheel drive vehicles, and

one operating mode in AWD LOW range.
