Mazda MX-5 2024 - DSC-TRACK; Warning and Cautions for Using the DSC-TRACK

DSC-TRACK
*
DSC-TRACK is a system that reduces
the operation frequency of the Traction
Control System (TCS) and the Dynamic
Stability Control (DSC) during sports
driving on circuits, and it allows the
vehicle to sideslip more than the
normal DSC. When the vehicle sideslip
increases significantly, the system
controls brake and engine output in
response to the steering wheel
operation to ensure vehicle stability.
Warning and Cautions for
Using the DSC-TRACK
WARNING
Do not rely on the DSC-TRACK as a
substitute for safe driving.
The DSC-TRACK cannot compensate
for unsafe and reckless driving,
excessive speed, tailgating (following
another vehicle too closely), and
hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and
road contact because of water on the
road surface). You can still have an
accident.
Do not use DSC-TRACK on public
roads.
Operating DSC-TRACK reduces the
DSC operation frequency, therefore
imprudent driving may lead to an
unexpected accident.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that
the
DSC-TRACK
can operate
normally.
Use the specified tire size and the
same type of tire on all 4 wheels.
Do not use tires with significantly
different wear patterns on the
same vehicle.
When using tires where the tire
diameter is changed due to the
installation of tire chains, or when
installing an emergency spare tire,
the DSC-TRACK may not operate
normally.
