Driving assist systems
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following sys-
tems operate automatically in response to various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and
should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle.
n Multi Terrain ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Restrains the vehicle from slipping when driving on sand, gravel, dirt,
mud, snow, ice or slick road surfaces, or in the event of sudden brak-
ing.
n Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed, when the system detects a panic stop situation.
n VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces.
n Active TRAC (Traction Control)
Maintains drive power and prevents the 4 wheels from spinning when
starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.
n Hill-start assist control
Helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting on an
incline or slippery slope. It operates for approximately 5 seconds at
maximum.
n KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System)
KDSS enhances ride comfort and handling response by using a
hydraulic control system to control the suspension stabilizer bars in
response to road surface and driving conditions during cornering or off-
road driving.
n PCS (Pre-Collision System) (if equipped)
