On slippery surfaces, the traction control
function prevents the drive wheels from spin-
ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle to
start moving from a stopped condition. It also
provides sufficient driving force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press-
ing the acceleration pedal.

The skid control function is designed to help
the driver maintain control of the vehicle on
slippery roads or during rapid steering
maneuvers. It works by controlling the engine
output and the brake on each wheel.

The ASC is automatically activated when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion. You can deactivate the system by press-
ing down the “ASC OFF” switch for 3
seconds or longer.
When the ASC is deactivated, the dis-
play/indicator will turn on. To reactivate the
ASC, momentarily press the “ASC OFF”
switch ; the display/indicator is turned off.
NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from the
engine compartment in the following situa-
tions. The sound is associated with checking
the operations of the ASC. At this time, you
may feel a shock from the brake pedal if you
depress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
• When the ignition switch is set to the “ON”
position.
• When the vehicle is driven for a while after
the engine is turned on.
 When the ASC is activated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the engine compartment.
This indicates that the system is operating
normally. It does not indicate a malfunction.
 When the anti-lock braking system warning
light is illuminated, the ASC is not active.
Traction control function
CAUTION
 When driving a vehicle on a snowy or icy
road, be sure to install snow tires and drive
the vehicle at moderate speeds.
Skid control function
NOTE

The skid control function operates at speeds
of about 9 mph (15 km/h) or higher.
“ASC OFF” switch
CAUTION
 For safety reasons, the “ASC OFF” switch
should be operated when your vehicle is
stopped.
 Be sure to keep the ASC on while driving in
normal circumstances.
NOTE
 Using the “ASC OFF” switch turns off both
the skid control function and the traction
control function.
 When moving out of mud, sand or fresh
snow, pressing the accelerator pedal may not
allow the engine speed to increase. In such
situations, temporarily turning off ASC with
the “ASC OFF” switch will make it easier to
move out your vehicle.
 If you continue to press the “ASC OFF”
switch after the ASC is turned off, the “mis-
taken operation protection function” will
activate and the ASC will turn back on.
