The braking system, traction control system – HONDA 2001 Accord Coupe - Owner's Manual User Manual
Page 205
The TCS monitors the speed of all
four wheels. When it senses a front
wheel losing traction, it applies
braking to that wheel. The TCS
indicator flashes when this occurs.
Driving with TCS requires no special
skills or technique. The TCS does
not control your car’s whole braking
system and cannot prevent skidding
if you enter a corner too fast. It is
still your responsibility to drive at
reasonable speeds and to leave a
sufficient margin of safety.
Your Honda is equipped with a
Traction Control System (TCS) to
assist you in maintaining traction
while driving slowly on loose or
slippery surfaces. The TCS assists
only in low-speed, low-traction
conditions; up to approximately 25
mph (40 km/h).
The TCS indicator will come on
along with the ABS indicator if there
is a problem with the anti-lock brake
system.
