Honda CR-V: Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®), aka Electronic Stability Control (ESC),
System / VSA® Operation
When VSA® activates, you may notice that the
engine does not respond to the accelerator.
You may also notice some noise from the
hydraulic system. You will also see the
indicator blink.

VSA® helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns
more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery
surfaces...
This button is on the driver side control panel.
To partially disable VSA® functionality/
features, press and hold it until you hear a
beep.
Your vehicle will have normal braking and
cornering ability, but traction control function
will be less effective...
Other information:
Keeps the brake applied after releasing the brake pedal until the accelerator
pedal is
pressed. You can use this system while the vehicle is temporarily stopped, like
at
traffic lights and in heavy traffic.
WARNING
Activating the automatic brake hold system
on steep hills or slippery roads may still
allow the vehicle to move if you remove
your foot from the brake pedal...
The audio system is disabled when it is disconnected from the power source,
such as
when the battery is disconnected or goes dead. In certain conditions, the system
may display a code entry screen. If this occurs, reactivate the audio system.
Reactivating the audio system
