SLIP Indicator Light

When one of the ESP

®

systems other than

ABS is activated, the SLIP indicator light in
the instrument cluster blinks 5 times per
second.

NOTE:
When the SLIP indicator light comes on
and stays on while driving, indicating a
malfunction of the ESP

®

systems (other

than ABS), the brake system will function
as an ordinary ABS with no additional
ESP

®

functions.

NOTE:
When you disconnect and re-connect the
battery, ESP

®

system functions other than

ABS will be deactivated and the slip indica-
tor light will blink 1 time per second. In this
case, use the following procedure to re-
activate the ESP

®

systems:

1) Drive your vehicle straight ahead with-

out tire slippage at a speed until the slip
indicator is turned off. (Drive straight for
approximately 35 km/h (22 mph) or
more and 10 seconds or more.)

2) The slip indicator light will go out and

the ESP

®

systems (other than ABS) will

be re-activated.

It may take more than few seconds before
the slip indicator light goes out depending
on the road surface condition.
