Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
WARNING
ABS (or ESC) will not prevent acci‐dents due to improper or dangerousdriving maneuvers. Even though ve‐hicle control is improved duringemergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and ob‐jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extremeroad conditions.The braking distance for vehicleequipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem (or Electronic Stability Con‐trol) may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con‐ditions.During these conditions the vehicleshould be driven at reduced speeds:•Rough, gravel or snow-coveredroads.
•With tire chains installed.
•On roads where the road surface ispitted or has different surfaceheight.

WARNING
Never drive too fast for the roadconditions or too quickly when cor‐nering. Electronic stability control(ESC) will not prevent accidents. Ex‐cessive speed in turns, abrupt ma‐neuvers and hydroplaning on wetsurfaces can still result in serious ac‐cidents. Only a safe and attentivedriver can prevent accidents byavoiding maneuvers that cause thevehicle to lose traction. Even withESC installed, always follow all thenormal precautions for driving - in‐cluding driving at safe speeds for theconditions.

•The warning light on the outsiderearview mirror will illuminatewhenever a vehicle is detected atthe rear side by the system.To avoid accidents, do not focusonly on the warning light and ne‐glect to see the surrounding of thevehicle.
•Drive safely even though the vehi‐cle is equipped with a BSD (Blindspot detection) system. Do notsolely rely on the system butcheck for yourself before changinglanes.The system may not alert thedriver in some conditions so al‐ways check the surroundings whiledriving.
CAUTION
•The system may not work proper‐ly if the bumper has been replacedor if a repair work has been donenear the sensor.
•The detection area differs accord‐ing to the roads width. If the roadis narrow the system may detectother vehicles in the second nextlane.
•On the contrary, if the road is verywide the system may not detectother vehicles in the next lane.
•The system might be turned offdue to strong electromagneticwaves.
