GENERAL INFORMATION
M23506100001USA0000010000
ASC (Active Skid Control System) has been installed.
The ASC system integrates the traction control
function and skid control function.
When Traction control function detects the slip of
the driving wheel (ex. during startup on slippery
surfaces), it automatically applies the brakes to
control the wheel slip ratios. At the same time,
Traction control function reduces the engine output
and prevents the wheel spin.
Skid control function responds to driving conditions
and reduces the engine output and applies brake
force to four wheels independently to control the
vehicle behavior.
Fail-safe function assures the safety.
Serviceability improvement
For reduced wiring harnesses and secure data
communication, the CAN*communication has been
adopted as a tool of communication with another
ECU.

*For more information about CAN (Controller Area
Network), refer to GROUP 54D P.54D-7.
ABS and ASC are controlled by the ASC-ECU.
