Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) System
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system is a kind of active safety technology
that assists the driver in controlling the
vehicle. It corrects the instability of the
vehicle body and applies braking force to
the wheels or reducing engine torque, and
guides the vehicle back to the correct route.
The ESC system is only an auxiliary
system. There are still great dangers
when driving on slippery wet roads. Please
drive with caution.
ESC will turn on every time when the vehicle
is started. To keep control of the vehicle
direction, the ESC system should always be
activated. If an emergency situation occurs
while driving the vehicle, the ESC status
indicator will illuminate the meter
instrument. This also occurs when the
traction control system is activated. You
may hear some noises or feel a vibration on
the brake pedal, which is normal. Please
continue operating the vehicle in your
desired direction. If the ESC system fails,
the ESC status indicator will stay illuminate
and the system will not work properly. At this
time, the driving mode should be adjusted.
Turning Off ESC
When the vehicle is started, click the
following on the multimedia display in
sequence: Vehicle Settings → Driving →
Driving Scene Assist. Then, click the ESC
off button to turn off the ESC system, and
the ESC off indicator
on the meter
instrument display will illuminate.
When there is insufficient traction force, for
example, in the following cases, the ESC
system can be disabled:
• When driving the vehicle on deep snow
or soft road.
• When the vehicle is trapped (such as in a
muddy road) and needed to move the
vehicle forward and backward to get out
of the trap.
Turning On ESC
In the multimedia display, click the ESC off
button to disable the ESC off function. The
ESC will automatically turn on and the ESC
off indicator
will turn off.
