VSC
VSC is a system that automatically maintains
the stability of the vehicle by controlling the
brakes in order to restrict swerving or skidding
during sudden steering wheel movements or
on a slippery road.
• If you press the VSC OFF switch more than
3 seconds, VSC (including TRC) will not
operate and the VSC OFF and TRC OFF
indicator lights will illuminate.
• The condition of the tyres has a large
influence on the system. Make sure that
all tyres are in good condition.

WARNING
• Do not put so much confidence
in the VSC. Even when VSC is
operating, there is a limit to the
amount of traction and stability
control. Dangerous driving may
cause an unexpected accident.
• Always drive carefully and if the slip
indicator flashes, drive with extra
care.
CAUTION
All four tyres should be of the same size,
manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern, as
well as free of wear. Installing tyres not
designated for your vehicle may cause
VSC to function incorrectly.
NOTE
• VSC can be operated when the vehicle
speed exceeds about 15 km/h.
• Even if you have deactivated the system,
VSC (including TRC), will return to the
operability state every time you start
the engine.
• When starting the engine or immediately
after the vehicle has started, you may
hear a clicking or thumping sound. This
is the sound of system operation check
and not a malfunction.

TRC functions
TRC is a system that ensures the stability
and driving force of the vehicle by controlling
the wheel spin of the driving wheel when
excessive throttle is applied during taking
off or accelerating on slippery road.
If the wheels start to slip, the computer
will detect it based on information from the
wheel speed sensors, and apply braking as
necessary. From this, it controls the excessive
driving force and prevents slipping.
• If you press the VSC OFF switch, TRC will
not operate and TRC OFF indicator lights
will illuminate.
• TRC will not operate when the TRC OFF
indicator light is illuminated.
• If the TRC activates, you may notice the
vehicle vibrate which is caused by brake
control and not a malfunction.
• When stuck in mud, you may not be able
to free your vehicle if TRC is in operation.
In this case, the VSC OFF switch can be
used to disable TRC.
