CAUTION

l

When 

 indication lamp blinks, Active Sta-

bility Control function or active traction con-
trol function is operating, which means that
the  road  is  slippery  or  that  your  vehicle’s
wheels are beginning to slip. If this happens,
drive slower with less accelerator input.

l

If  an  abnormal  condition  occurs  in  the  sys-
tem  while  driving,  the 

  indication  lamp

will illuminate.
In these cases, follow these procedures:

If  the  temperature  in  the  braking  system
continues  to  increase  due  to  continuous
brake  control  on  a  slippery  road  surface,
the 

 indication lamp will blink, and op-

eration of the active traction control func-
tion will be suspended to protect the brake
system. (The engine control of the active
traction control function and normal brake
operation will not be affected.) Park your
vehicle in a safe place. When the tempera-
ture  in  the  braking  system  has  come
down, the 

 indication lamp will go off

and  the  Active  Stability  Control  function
and  active  traction  control  function  will
start operating again.

CAUTION

If the 

 indication lamp does not go out

even  though  the  above  procedure  is  fol-
lowed,  there  could  be  a  problem  in  the
system.
Stop the engine and start the engine again
and check whether the 

 indication lamp

goes out. If the indication lamp goes out,
there is no abnormal condition.
If the 

 indication lamp illuminates even

after  your  vehicle  is  driven  a  short  dis-
tance after re-starting the engine, we rec-
ommend  you  to  have  your  vehicle
checked as soon as possible.

l

If  the  vehicle  is  towed  with  the  ignition
switch in the “ON” position or the operation
mode in ON and only the front wheels or on-
ly the rear wheels raised off the ground, the
ASTC may operate, resulting in an accident.
When  towing  the  vehicle  with  the  front
wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” or “ACC” position or the operation
mode in ACC or OFF. When towing the ve-
hicle  with  the  rear  wheels  raised,  keep  the
ignition switch in the “ACC” position or the
operation mode in ACC.
Refer to “Towing” on page 8-23.

Trailer Stability Assist
(TSA)

E00639500033

The trailer stability assist system helps safely
running while towing a trailer by controlling
the  braking  force  of  each  wheel  and  engine
power  in  order  to  stabilize  the  motion  when
detecting the continuous sway of the vehicle
caused by a trailer.
When the trailer stability assist system oper-
ates the brakes, the brake lamp turns on.
About the towing of the trailer, refer to page
6-84.

CAUTION

l

Do not over-rely on TSA system.
Due to the slippery road surface, heavy side
wind,  inappropriate  weight  and  positioning
of  luggage,  and/or  driving  at  high  speed,
TSA system may fail to secure the stability.
Always  drive  appropriately  in  accordance
with  the  condition  of  traffic,  road  surface
condition, weather, and the weight and posi-
tioning of luggage.

l

The  trailer  stability  assist  system  does  not
operate in case as follows:

When  sudden  braking  and  braking  while
driving  downhill  cause  an  abrupt  motion
of  the  vehicle  which  makes  the  vehicle
and the trailer form a dogleg shape.

When  a  sideslip  occurs  by  sudden  steer-
ing.

NOTE

l

When  TSA  system  operates,  the  vehicle
body  may  vibrate  and  the  operating  sounds
from the engine compartment may be heard.
These  motions  indicate  normal  operation  of
the system, not abnormal operation.

l

TSA system operates when the vehicle speed
is about 55 km/h (34 mph) or higher.

l

When TSA system operates, the ASC opera-
tion indication lamp blinks on and off.

l

When ASC does not work, TSA system does
not operate.

Cruise control*

E00609102395

Cruise  control  is  an  automatic  speed  control
system that keeps a set speed. It can be acti-
vated at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or
more.

CAUTION

l

When  you  do  not  wish  to  drive  at  a  set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.

l

On  vehicles  with  M/T,  do  not  move  the
gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position
while driving at a set speed without depress-
ing the clutch pedal. The engine will run too
fast and might be damaged.

l

Do not use cruise control when driving con-
ditions will not allow you to stay at the same
speed,  such  as  in  heavy  traffic  or  on  roads
that  are  winding,  icy,  snow-covered,  wet,
slippery, on a steep downhill slope.

NOTE

l

Cruise control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.

l

Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You  may  use  the  accelerator  pedal  if  you
want to stay at your set speed.

l

Your  speed  may  increase  to  more  than  the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use
the brake to control your speed. As a result,
the set speed driving is deactivated.

Speed Limiter

E00633201110

The Speed Limiter is a driver assist function
to  prevent  from  exceeding  the  speed  set  by
driver while engine power control.

CAUTION

l

Because  the  system  does  not  use  service
brake  (hydraulic  brake),  the  vehicle  speed
may exceed the set speed on the downhill.
If a driver wants to keep the vehicle speed in
such a situation, he/she must put on a service
brake or downshift.

NOTE

l

If  the  clutch  pedal  (M/T)  is  depressed,  the
Speed Limiter does not activate.

If  the  vehicle  speed  exceeds  the  set  speed,
control  state  “LIMIT”  and  the  Speed  Limit-
er’s symbol will blink in the combination me-
ter.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed af-
ter  indicated  control  state  “LIMIT”  and  the
Speed  Limiter’s  symbol,  beep  alert  will
sound a certain period of time.
While  running  without  blinked  control  state
“LIMIT” and the Speed Limiter’s symbol, if
you decrease the set speed and vehicle speed
is more than set speed, control state “LIMIT”
and  the  Speed  Limiter’s  symbol  blinking
starts but beep alert is delayed.
In  this  case,  when  vehicle  speed  keeps  ex-
ceeding set speed for about 30 seconds after
control  state  “LIMIT”  and  the  Speed  Limit-
er’s symbol are blinked, beep alert will sound
a certain period of time.
If  the  vehicle  speeds  decreases  less  than  set
speeds, control state “LIMIT” and the Speed
Limiter’s  symbol  stop  blinking.  When  beep
alert is sounding, the beep alert also goes off.

NOTE

l

However,  this  gives  priority  to  audio  and
visual signal of safety reasons or driver’s de-
mand.

l

If the set speed is too lower based on current
shift  position,  the  Speed  Limiter  may  not
limit  the  vehicle  speed  to  prevent  engine
stall.
