BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


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

      Trailer sway control is a part of the VSC function. Accordingly, if the VSC OFF mode is selected or VSC is not functioning normally, trailer sway control will not operate.

  2. OPERATION


    1. The VSC OFF switch can select 3 modes (Normal mode, TRC OFF mode, and VSC OFF mode).

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

    3. 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.

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