Electric power steering system warn-
ing lamp
Type 1
Type 2
If there is a malfunction in the system, the warning
lamp will come on.
Under
normal conditions, the warning lamp comes
on when the electric motor switch is turned to the
“ON” position and goes off a few seconds later.
CAUTION
l
If the warning lamp appears during driv-
ing, it may become harder to turn the steer-
ing wheel.
If the warning lamp appears while driving
1.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, put the selec-
tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position and turn
off the electric motor unit.
2. Restart the electric motor unit to check wheth-
er the warning lamp goes out; if it then re-
mains off, there is no problem.
If the warning lamp does not go out, or it ap-
pears again while driving, we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected.
Active stability control (ASC)
E00616700386
The
Active Stability Control (ASC) takes overall
control of the anti-lock brake system, traction con-
trol function and stability control function to help
maintain the vehicle’s control. Please read this sec-
tion in conjunction with the page on the anti-lock
brake system, traction control function and stability
control function.

CAUTION
l
Do
not over-rely on the ASC. Even the
ASC cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle.
This system, like any other system, has
limits and cannot help you to maintain
traction and control of the vehicle in all
circumstances. Reckless driving may lead
to accidents. It is the driver’s responsibil-
ity to drive carefully. This means taking
into account the traffic, road and environ-
mental conditions.
l
Be sure to use the same specified type and
size of tyre on all 4 wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly.
l
Do not install any aftermarket limited-
slip differential (LSD) on your vehicle.
The ASC may stop functioning properly.
