The vehicle stability assist (VSA)

system helps to stabilize the vehicle

during cornering if the vehicle turns

more or less than desired. It also

assists you in maintaining traction

while accelerating on loose or

slippery road surfaces. It does this by

regulating the engine's output and by

selectively applying the brakes.

When VSA activates, you may notice

that the engine does not respond to

the accelerator in the same way it

does at other times. There may also

be some noise from the VSA

hydraulic system. You will also see

the VSA activation indicator blink.

The VSA system cannot enhance the

vehicle's driving stability in all

situations and does not control your

vehicle's entire braking system. It is

still your responsibility to drive and

corner at reasonable speeds and to

leave a sufficient margin of safety.

VSA OFF Indicator

When VSA is off, the VSA OFF

indicator comes on as a reminder.

Vehicle Stability Assist

(VSA) System Indicator

When VSA activates, you will see the

VSA system indicator blink.

If this indicator comes on while

driving, pull to the side of the road

when it is safe, and turn off the

engine. Reset the system by

restarting the engine. If the VSA

system indicator stays on or comes

back on while driving, have the VSA

system inspected by your dealer.

NOTE: The main function of the VSA

system is generally known as

Electronic Stability Control (ESC).

The system also includes a traction

control function.

If the indicator does not come on

when the power mode is set to ON,

there may be a problem with the VSA

system. Have your dealer inspect

your vehicle as soon as possible.
