Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability Control as a substitute for safe driving.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) 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.
Heed the following cautions so that the DSC can operate normally.
Always use tires of the specified size, same manufacturer, brand, and pattern (tread pattern) for the front and rear wheels.
Do not use tires with significantly different wear patterns on the same vehicle.
Do not use tires with sizes other than the specified size, different type, and significantly different wear patterns on the same vehicle.
When using tires where the tire diameter is changed due to the installation of tire chains, or when installing an emergency spare tire, the DSC may not operate normally.
