without ESPA
with ESPB
The ESP supports stability when the
vehicle starts to slide away from your
intended path. This is performed by
braking individual wheels and
reducing engine torque as needed.
The system also provides an
enhanced traction control function
by reducing engine torque if the
wheels spin when you accelerate.
This improves your ability to pull away
on slippery roads or loose surfaces,
and improves comfort by limiting
wheel spin in hairpin bends.
Stability control (ESP) warning
lamp
The ESP warning lamp will flash when
the system is operating. See
Warning lamps and indicators
(page 90).
Emergency brake assist
WARNING
Emergency brake assist does
not relieve you of your
responsibility to drive with due care
and attention.
Emergency brake assist will detect
when you brake heavily by measuring
the rate at which you press the brake
pedal. It will provide maximum
braking efficiency as long as you
press the pedal. Emergency brake
assist can reduce stopping distances
in critical situations.
