Driving Impression when ESP
is Working
When ESP
is applied in a certain situation (the indicator
blinks and a warning buzzer sounds), such as during a
sharp turn, you may feel that ESP
controls each wheel and
different levels of needed braking force are applied to
wheels. You may hear some noise or feel some vibrations
from the brake pedal or other systems. They are caused by
pressure changes in relevant system. You may also notice
the engine output decreases even when the accelerator
pedal is being depressed.
ESP
(ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM)
SYSTEM
The Electronic Vehicle Stability Control Program (ESP) is a
supplementary driving safety system when your vehicle is
unstably moving in a certain situation, such as during a
sharp corner. The ESP applies brakes on a certain wheel
(s) or controls the engine torque to compensate vehicle
stability. These actions help your vehicle avoid dangerous
situations. The ESP functions automatically, working only in
very unstable conditions; it does not operate under normal
driving conditions. If the ESP is engaged, the ESP warning
light will flicker on the instrument cluster and a warning alarm
will sound.
BAS (Brake Assist System) Function
A certain driver such as a female driver, aged driver, or a
driver with a disability is unable to depress the brake pedal
as hard as necessary. When the ESP
system recognizes
any emergency situations requiring hard braking, it automati-
cally delivers an extra high braking pressure to the wheels.
ARP (Active Rollover Protection) Function
This function is a part of the ESP
system. When your vehicle
moves in an extremely unstable manner, this function helps
the vehicle maintain normal stability.
• If the ESP
warning light comes on, the ESP
related system is
defective. Make sure to check the vehicle at the nearest
Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.
• The ESP
system does not operate during reverse driving.
• The ESP
system activates when the vehicle is unstable to cor-
rect the vehicle stability. When the ESP
warning lamp and the
warning alarm turn on, reduce the speed and pay extra attention
to the road.
• The ESP
system is only a supplementary device for the vehicle.
When the vehicle exceeds its physical limits, it cannot be controlled.
Do not rely on the system. Keep driving safely.
• When ESP
is applied, you may feel some noise or vibration from
the brake pedal or other relevant systems. They are caused by
pressure changes in the relevant systems.
CAUTION
The ARP system more powerfully controls the engine and each
wheel than the ESP function. When the ARP is applied, a sudden
decrease of vehicle speed or powerful braking force can make
steering your vehicle difficult.
