ESP/TCS Indicator Light
The yellow ESP/TCS Indicator Light located in
the instrument cluster comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position.
The light should go out with the engine run-
ning, unless the system has been turned off. The ESP/
TCS Indicator Light starts to flash as soon as the tires lose
traction and the ESP system becomes active. The ESP/
TCS Indicator Light also flashes when TCS is active. If the
ESP/TCS Indicator Light begins to flash during accelera-
tion, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle
as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to
the prevailing road conditions.
WARNING!
ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent
the natural laws of physics from acting on the
vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded. ESP
cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting
from excessive speed in turns, or hydroplaning.
Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of an ESP-equipped ve-
hicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dan-
gerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s
safety or the safety of others.
The ESP system has 3 available operating modes:
ESP On
This is the normal operating mode for ESP. Whenever
the vehicle is started, the ESP system will be in this
mode. This mode should be used for most all driving
situations. ESP should only be turned off for specific
reasons as noted in the following paragraphs.
