Driving your vehicle
If the Cruise Control was in use when the ESC activates, the
Cruise Control automatically disen-
gages. The Cruise Control can be
reengaged when the road condi-
tions allow. See “Cruise Control
System” later in this chapter. (if
equipped)
When moving out of the mud or driving on a slippery road, the
engine rpm (revolutions per
minute) may not increase even if
you press the accelerator pedal
deeply. This is to maintain the sta-
bility and traction of the vehicle and
does not indicate a problem.
ESC OFF condition
To cancel ESC operation :
State 1
Press the ESC OFF button shortly
(ESC OFF indicator light and mes-
sage illuminates). At this state, the
engine control function does not
operate. In other words, the traction
control function does not operate but
only the brake control function oper-
ates.
Press the ESC OFF button for more
than 3 seconds. ESC OFF indicator
light and message illuminates with
an ESC OFF warning chime. At this
state, the engine control function and
brake control function does not oper-
ate. In other words, the vehicle sta-
bility control function does not oper-
ate any more.
If the ignition switch is placed to the
LOCK/OFF position when ESC is off,
ESC remains off. Upon restarting the
engine, the ESC will automatically
turn on again.

Take the following precautions:
If the Cruise Control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminat-
ed) the Cruise Control can be
activated unintentionally.
Keep the Cruise Control sys-
tem off (CRUISE indicator light
OFF) when the Cruise Control
is not in use, to avoid inadver-
tently setting a speed.
Use the Cruise Control system
only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
Do not use the Cruise Control
when it may not be safe to
keep the vehicle at a constant
speed:
- Driving in heavy or varying
speed traffic.
- On slippery (rainy, icy or snow covered) roads.
- Hilly or winding roads.
- Very windy areas.
