Dynamic Stability Control
(DSC)/Roll Stability
Control (RSC)

The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
automatically controls braking and engine
torque in conjunction with systems such
as ABS and TCS to help control side slip
when driving on slippery surfaces or
during sudden or evasive maneuvering,
enhancing vehicle safety.

The Roll Stability Control (RSC)
automatically controls braking and engine
torque in conjunction with systems such
as ABS and TCS to help control rolling
when cornering at a higher speed or
during sudden or evasive maneuvering,
enhancing vehicle safety.

Refer to ABS (page 5-7) and TCS (page
5-22).

DSC/RSC operation is possible at speeds
greater than 15 km/h (9 mph).

WARNING

Do not rely on the dynamic stability
control as a substitute for safe driving:

The dynamic stability control (DSC)/
Roll Stability Control (RSC) cannot
compensate for unsafe and reckless
driving, excessive speed, tailgating
(following another vehicle too
closely), and hydroplaning (reduced
tire friction and road contact because
of water on the road surface). You
can still have an accident.

When driving under bad road
conditions, lower the vehicle speed and
drive carefully:

Reckless driving and excessive speed
under any road conditions is
dangerous as it reduces vehicle
stability and operability which could
result in an accident.
