On slippery road surfaces, the traction control
system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spin-
ning excessively, thus helping the car to accel-
erate. It also provides sufficient driving force
and steering performance as the car turns at
accelerated speeds. TCS has - SLIP control.

(If installed)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking
or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-
trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-
trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,
in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS
will increase vehicle control during braking.
