ESP/TCS Indicator Light

The

ЉESP/TCS Indicator LightЉ starts to flash as

soon as the tires lose traction and the TCS or
ESP system becomes active. It will also flash
once a swaying trailer is detected and the TSC

(Trailer Sway Control) system activates. If the

ЉESP/TCS

Indicator Light

Љ begins to flash during acceleration, ease

up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as
possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the
prevailing road conditions.

WARNING!

ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent

the natural laws of physics from acting on the
vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded.

ESP cannot prevent accidents, including those

resulting from excessive speed in turns, or hydro-
planing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver
can prevent accidents.

The capabilities of an ESP-equipped vehicle must

never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety
or the safety of others.

The ESP system has 2 available operating modes.
