How to Use the Anti-Skid Function

When starting the vehicle on snow-covered or waterlogged roads, the wheels are prone to skidding. The onboard computer will detect the wheel skidding and limit the engine output, requiring the ESP to be turned off. When encountering situations like getting stuck or off-road driving, the vehicle needs appropriate skidding to help extricate itself or climb, so to ensure successful extrication, the ESP should be turned off first. Snow chains used for driving in snow can interfere with the sensor data in the ESP system when altering the wheel's outer diameter, causing signal inaccuracies, thus requiring the ESP to be turned off. When the vehicle is drifting, the wheels are in a skidding state, and the ESP will intervene to limit the vehicle's skidding, necessitating the ESP to be turned off.
