HOW DOES TRACTION CONTROL
WORK
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels and,
when needed, reduces power at the same
time. If the wheels spin when accelerating
on slippery or loose surfaces, the system
reduces power in order to increase traction.
SWITCHING TRACTION CONTROL
ON AND OFF
WARNING: The stability and traction
control light illuminates steadily if the
system detects a failure. Make sure you
did not manually disable the traction
control system using the information
display controls or the switch. If the stability
control and traction control light is still illuminating steadily, have the system
serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Operating your vehicle with
the traction control disabled could lead to
an increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
When you switch the system off or on, a
message appears in the information display
showing system status.
You can switch the system off with the
traction control switch.
Using a Switch
Use the traction control switch on the
instrument panel to switch the system off or
on.
