WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced power steering
assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others.
Service should be obtained as soon as possible.
CAUTION!
Prolong operation of the steering system at the end
of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering
fluid temperature and should be avoided when
possible. Damage to the power steering pump may
occur.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM
(ABS/TCS/BAS/HSA/ERM/ESP) IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional ad-
vanced electronic brake control system that includes ABS
(Anti-Lock Brake System), TCS (Traction Control Sys-
tem), BAS (Brake Assist System), Hill Start Assist (HSA),
ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation) and ESP (Electronic
Stability Program). All systems work together to enhance
vehicle stability and control in various driving conditions
and are commonly referred to as ESP.
ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)
This system aids the driver in maintaining vehicle control
under adverse braking conditions. The system controls
hydraulic brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up and
help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces during braking.
Refer to “Anti-Lock Brake System” in Section 5 of this
manual for more information about ABS.
