Certain adverse driving maneuvers may activate the RSC system, which include:

• Emergency lane-change
• Taking a turn too fast
• Quick maneuvering to avoid an accident, pedestrian or obstacle The RSC system may be deactivated in certain situations. See the Switching off AdvanceTrac with RSC section following.
