result in reduced braking performance.

1Vehicle Skid Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to
help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse
conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices.
Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering
input can all affect whether VSC will be effective in preventing
loss of control.
2Brake-Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of
the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving
practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-
system maintenance and tire and road conditions.
