BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM


  1. FUNCTION


    1. The operation of the VSC and TRC functions can be stopped by the VSC OFF switch. With these functions stopped and the vehicle is driving off the shoulder of the road or running on a dirt road, the engine output control can be stopped to maintain drive torque.

    3. Briefly pressing the VSC OFF switch in Normal mode selects TRC OFF mode.

    4. Pressing and holding the VSC OFF switch for 3 seconds or more with the vehicle stopped selects VSC OFF mode, disabling the TRC and VSC functions.

    5. Briefly pressing the VSC OFF switch in TRC OFF mode or VSC OFF mode or turning the engine switch off returns to Normal mode.
