DRIVING AID TECHNOLOGIES
Vehicle Stability System
(VSS)
This vehicle is equipped with a Vehicle
Stability System (VSS).
This system helps to keeping the con-
trol of the direction and reduce the risk
of tipping or rolling over in some situa-
tions.
The VSS is composed of:
– An Antilock Braking System (ABS)
that helps maintain steering control
during an emergency braking situ-
ation by keeping the brakes from
locking.
– An Electronic Brake Distribution
(EBD) system that automatically ad-
justs the brake balance between all
three wheels. With the ABS, EBD
helps maintain directional control
and maximize the braking force de-
pending on the traction available.
– A Traction Control System (TCS)
that helps prevent the rear wheel
from slipping under throttle de-
mand. The TCS will limit rear wheel
spin only if you turn the handle-
bar (steer out of straight line) or
if vehicle speed exceeds 50 km/h
(31 MPH). When off-throttle (decel-
eration), the TCS will prevent the
rear wheel from blocking.
– A Stability Control System (SCS)
is designed to limit the power driv-
ing the rear tire and to brake individ-
ual wheels, which reduces the risk
of losing control of the vehicle or
rolling over.
NOTE: The VSS light in the gauge will
turn on when VSS intervenes and will
remain on for 2 seconds after VSS in-
tervention.
Limitations
VSS cannot help you maintain control
in all situations.
Surfaces with Poor Traction
The grip of tires on the road surface
limits the maximum braking. Even
with ABS and EBD, your stopping dis-
tance will be longer on surfaces with
poor traction' if you do not maintain the
recommended tire pressure or if tire
tread condition is degraded.
If your tires lose traction with the road
surface you may lose control of the ve-
hicle, even with VSS.
If the paved road surface is covered
or partially covered with ice, snow
or slush, there is not enough traction
available to maintain control of the ve-
hicle, even with VSS. Do not operate
on snow, ice or slush.
NOTE: The grip of the vehicle tires
starts to decrease below 6°C (43°F).
Like other on-road vehicles, this ve-
hicle can hydroplane on water (lose
traction on a layer of water). If you ride
too fast into a layer of water, such as
a large puddle or flowing water on the
road, the vehicle can lose traction and
spin out, and the VSS cannot keep you
in control. Avoid large water puddles
or water streams, and slow down or
pull off the road during heavy rains. If
you must pass through water, slow
down as much as possible before you
reach it.
Reduce speed on surfaces with poor
traction, like mud, sand, gravel or
wet pavement. This vehicle is not for
off-road operation. Always operate the
vehicle on maintained roadways. Do
not use the vehicle on any other ter-
rain.
Tires
The VSS on the vehicle has been cal-
ibrated to perform best with a tire of
a specific size, material and tread pat-
tern. Replacing your tires with ones
not approved by BRP can cause the
VSS to be ineffective.
