TCS Function

TCS Function
^ The wheel spin of the drive wheels is detected by ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) from the wheel speed signals from four wheels, so if wheel spin occurs, drive wheel right and left brake fluid pressure control and engine fuel cut are performed while throttle value is restricted to reduce the engine torque and decrease the amount of wheel spin. In addition, the degree throttle is opened is controlled to achieve the optimum engine torque.
^ Depending on road circumstances, the driver may have a sluggish feel. This is normal, because the optimum traction has the highest priority under TCS operation.
^ TCS may be activated any time vehicle suddenly accelerates, suddenly down/upshifts, or is driven on a road with a varying surface friction coefficient.
^ During TCS operation, it informs a driver of system operation by flashing SLIP indicator lamp.
