Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenl y, or if the
brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface, or in off-road
conditions (such as rough roads, sand and mud)
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning on
slippery road surfaces
◆Active TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the 4 wheels from spi nning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads, or in off-road
conditions
◆Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward movement of the vehicle when start ing on
an incline or slippery slope
◆KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System)
KDSS helps to enhance ride comfort and handling response by usi ng a
hydraulic control system to control the suspension stabilizer b ars in
response to road surface and driving conditions during cornerin g or off-
road driving
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following
systems operate autom atically in response to various driving
situations. Be aware, however, that these systems are supple-
