USING ADVANCETRAC
The system automatically is enabled when you start your engine. The
ESC portion of the system is disabled when the transmission is in R
(Reverse) or, on some models, if the stability control button is pressed
and held for more than five seconds when the brakes are applied and the
vehicle is at a stop. The traction control portion of the system can be
turned off independently. See theTraction Controlchapter.

provide a more spirited driving experience. To enter sport mode, press
the stability control button twice rapidly with the brakes applied. The

sport mode.
Note:Sport mode is not intended to be used on public roadways.
