The traction control system automatically comes
on whenever you start your vehicle. To limit wheel
spin, especially in slippery road conditions, you
should always leave the system on. But you
can turn the traction control system off if you ever
need to. You should turn the system off if your
vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and
rocking the vehicle is required. Additionally,
turning the traction control system off on some
surfaces, such as deep snow and loose gravel,
will assist vehicle motion at lower speeds.
SeeRocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out on
page 321for more information. See alsoWinter
Driving on page 316for information on using TCS
when driving in snowy or icy conditions.

control system will turn off and the traction control
system warning light will come on. Press the

®system will turn off. Press the
TC button again to turn StabiliTrak®back on.
