ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation)
NOTE: Anytim e the ESP system is in the “Full Off”
mode, ERM is disabled . Refer to ESP (Electronic Stability
Program ) for a complete explanation of the available ESP
modes.
This system anticip ates the potential for wheel lift by
monitoring the driver ’s steering wheel inp ut and the
speed of the vehicle. When ERM determ ines that the rate
of change of the steering wheel angle and vehicles speed
are sufficient to potentially cause wheel lift, it then
applies the brake of the approp riate wheel and may also
red uce engine power to lessen the chance that wheel lift
will occur. ERM will only intervene during very severe or
evasive driving maneu vers.

WARN ING!
Many factors, such as veh icle load ing, road condi-
tion s and drivin g condition s, influ ence the chance
that wheel lift or rollover may occur. ERM cannot
preven t all wheel lift or rollovers, esp ecially those
that involve leavin g the road way or strik ing objects
or oth er veh icles. Only a safe, atten tive, and skillfu l
driver can preven t accid ents. The capabilities of an
ERM-equipped veh icle must never be exploited in a
reck less or dangerou s manner which could jeop ar-
dize the user’s safety or the safety of oth ers.
ERM can only red uce the chance of wheel lift occurring
during severe or evasive driving maneu vers. It cannot
prevent wheel lift due to other factors such as road
cond itions, leaving the road way or striking objects or
other vehicles.
