NOTE
If, because of hard driving, TSC intervenes
frequently, TSC may then have to shut down to
protect the brakes from overheating, then after
the brakes have cooled down the control
returns to normal operations. So don't drive
the car to its handling limits thinking TSC will
save you from yourself.
