BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM


  1. OUTLINE


    1. Models with the brake control system consisting of Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist use a mechanical type Brake Assist, which is integrated into the brake booster assembly.

    2. Models with the brake control system consisting of ABS with EBD, Brake Assist, Traction Control (TRC) and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) use an electrical type Brake Assist mechanism, which effects Brake Assist control through the brake actuator assembly.

    3. VSC OFF switch is provided for models with ABS with EBD, Brake Assist, TRC and VSC.

  2. PRECAUTION


    1. When brake control system is activated, the brake pedal could shudder, which is a normal occurrence of the system in operation and should not be considered as a malfunction.

    2. The TRC and VSC functions control brake hydraulic pressure and engine output to ensure vehicle stability. Therefore, operate the VSC OFF switch (stop the operation of the TRC and VSC functions) only when it is necessary.
