Emergency stop signal (ESS) (if equipped)
ESS stands for Emergency Stop Signal.
ESS is a feature t_hat gives a warning to a following vehicle by fiashing all turn signal lights faster than usual 1f all the following conditions are met. Also, within these conditions, it will fiash along with your turn signal in the instrument cluster. • When you slam down on the brakes at speeds of approximately 55 km/h (34 mph) or over. • When the ABS is activated or when you suddenly brake similar to activating the ABS.
The ESS will stop functioning in the following situations: • When you release the brake When the ABS is no longer activated When you turn on the hazard warning switch When the car is no longer rapidly decelerating

A WARNING
Although the ESS is designed to reduce the number of rear-end colli­sions that occur from sudden brak­ing, by warning a following vehicle, it cannot prevent all collisions. Always make an effort to drive safely and avoid unnecessary sudden braking when stopping or decelerating.
NOTE: The ESS feature cannot be deactivated. • Use of the hazard warning switch should be given preference over the ESS. When driving on the following surfaces and the ABS gives out momentarily, the ESS may not function. -When driving on slippery surfaces -When driving over bumps on the road such as highway joint seams

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Braking
60G165S
The distance needed to bring any vehicle to a halt increases with the speed of the vehicle. The braking distance needed, for example, at 60 km/h (37 mph) will be approximately 4 times greater than the braking distance needed at 30 km/h (19 mph). Start to depress the brake pedal when there is plenty of distance between your vehicle and the stopping point, and slow down gradually.
3-53
A WARNING
If water gets into the brake devices, brake performance may become poor and unpredictable. After driving through water or washing the under­side of the vehicle, test the brakes while driving at a slow speed to see if they have maintained their normal effectiveness. If the brakes are less effective than normal, dry them by repeatedly applying the brakes while driving slowly until the brakes have regained their normal effectiveness.
Power-assisted brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes. If power assistance is lost due to a stalled engine or other failures, the system is still fully operational on reserve power and you can bring the vehicle to a complete stop by pressing the brake pedal once and holding it down. The reserve power is partly used up when you depress the brake pedal and reduces each time the pedal is pressed. Apply smooth and even pressure to the pedal. Do not pump the pedal.
A WARNING
Even without reserve power in the brake system, you can still stop the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal harder than normally required. How­ever, the stopping distance may be
longer.
Brake assist system
When you slam the brakes on, the brake assist system determines it to be an emer­gency stop and provides more powerful braking for a driver who cannot hold down the brake pedal firmly.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec­tronically controlling braking pressure. It will also help you maintain steering control when braking on slippery surfaces or when braking hard. The ABS works automatically, so you do not need any special braking technique. Just push the brake pedal down without pumping. The ABS will operate whenever it senses that the wheels are locking up. You may feel the brake pedal move a little while the ABS is operating.
NOTE: The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is under about 9 km/h (6 mph). ff the ABS system is activated, you may hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat­ing in the brake pedal. This is normal and indicates that the brake fluid pres­sure is being controlled properly. You may hear an operation sound when you start the engine or after the vehicle begins to move. This means that the above systems are in the self-check mode. This sound does not indicate a malfunction.
A WARNING
On some types of loose surfaces (such as gravel, snow-covered roads, etc.), the stopping distance required for a vehicle with ABS may be slightly greater than the one required for a comparable vehicle with a conventional brake system. With a conventional brake system, skidding tyres are able to plow the gravel or snow layer, shortening the stopping distance. ABS minimizes this resistance effect. Allow for extra stopping dis­tance when driving on loose sur­faces. On regular paved roads, some driv­ers may be able to obtain slightly shorter stopping distances with conventional brake systems than with ABS. In both of the above conditions, ABS will still offer the advantage of helping you maintain directional control. However, remember that ABS will not compensate for bad road or weather conditions or poor driver judgment. Use good judg­ment and do not drive too fast.
