■ ECB (Electronically Controlled
Brake System)
The electronically controlled system
generates braking force correspond-
ing to the brake operation
■ Multi Terrain ABS (Anti-lock
Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the
brakes are applied suddenly, 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)
The Multi Terrain ABS operates in syn-
chronization with the Multi-terrain
Select
■ Brake assist
Generates an increased level of brak-
ing 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.
■ Enhanced VSC (Enhanced Vehi-
cle Stability Control)
Provides cooperative control of the
Multi Terrain ABS, Active TRAC, VSC
and EPS.
Helps to maintain directional stability
when swerving on slippery road sur-
faces by controlling steering perfor-
mance.
■ Trailer Sway Control
Helps the driver to control trailer sway
by selectively applying brake pressure
for individual wheels and reducing
driving torque when trailer sway is
detected.
■ Active TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and
prevent the drive wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerat-
ing on slippery roads
■ Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward move-
ment of the vehicle when starting on an
uphill
■ EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to reduce
the amount of effort needed to turn the
steering wheel
■ VDIM (Vehicle Dynamics Inte-
grated Management)
Provides integrated control of the
Multi Terrain ABS, brake assist, Active
TRAC, VSC, hill-start assist control
and EPS systems. Helps to maintain
