–
Keep the tire pressure at the
proper level as shown on the
label attached to the vehicle
’
s
door pillar.
–
Use only the special tempor-
ary spare tire to replace a flat
tire. With a temporary spare
tire, the effectiveness of the
Vehicle Dynamics Control
system is reduced and this
should be taken into account
when driving the vehicle in
such a condition.
.
If non-matching tires are used,
the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system may not operate cor-
rectly.
.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control
system helps prevent unstable
vehicle motion such as skidding
using control of the brakes and
engine power. Do not turn off the
Vehicle Dynamics Control sys-
tem unless it is absolutely ne-
cessary. If you must turn off the
Vehicle Dynamics Control sys-
tem, drive very carefully accord-
ing to the road surface condition.
In the event of wheelspin and/or skidding
on a slippery road surface and/or during
cornering and/or an evasive maneuver,
the Vehicle Dynamics Control system
adjusts the engine
’
s output and the
wheels
’
respective braking forces to help
maintain traction and directional control.
.
Traction Control Function
The traction control function is designed to
prevent spinning of the driving wheels on
slippery road surfaces, thereby helping to
maintain traction and directional control.
Activation of this function is shown by
flashing the Vehicle Dynamics Control
operation indicator light.
.
Skid Suppression Function
The skid suppression function is designed
to help maintain directional stability by
suppressing the wheels
’
tendency to slide
sideways during steering operations. Acti-
vation of this function is shown by flashing
of the Vehicle Dynamics Control operation
indicator light.
