WARNING
■Handling of tires and the suspen- sion
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect the driving assist systems, and may
cause a system to malfunction.
■Trailer Sway Control precaution
The Trailer Sway Control system is not able to reduce trailer sway in all situations. Depending on many fac-
tors such as the conditions of the vehicle, trailer, road surface and driv-ing environment, the Trailer Sway
Control system may not be effective. Refer to your trailer owner’s manual for information on how to tow your
trailer properly.
■If trailer sway occurs
Observe the following precautions. Failing to do so may cause death or serious injury.
●Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead. Do not try to
control trailer sway by turning the steering wheel.
●Begin releasing the accelerator pedal immediately but very gradu-ally to reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply vehicle brakes.
If you make no extreme correction with the steering or brakes, your vehi-cle and trailer should stabilize.
( →P.152)
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not rely solely upon the Secondary Collision Brake. This system is designed to help reduce the possibil-
ity of further damage due to a second- ary collision, however, that effect changes according to various condi-
tions. Overly relying on the system may result in death or serious injury.
