is turned on. If it does not, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer. If the system is
working normally, the indicator light then
turns off.

Traction Control System (TCS) has been
turned off. If StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) is turned off, TCS is also
turned off. To turn TCS and ESC off and on,
seeTraction Control/Electronic Stability
Control 0224.
If TCS is off, wheel spin is not limited unless
necessary to help protect the driveline from
damage. Adjust driving accordingly.

Driving and Operating 227
AWD Mode Switch
To activate each mode, press the MODE
switch on the instrument panel.
Modes
Tour Mode
Use for normal city and highway driving to
provide a smooth ride. This setting provides
balance between comfort and handling.
There is no persistent indicator in the
instrument cluster for this mode.
Sport Mode
Use where road conditions or personal
preference demand a more controlled
response. Sport Mode improves vehicle
handling and acceleration on dry pavement. When active, Sport Mode modifies AWD
torque, steering, Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), Traction Control System (TCS), and
suspension tuning, if equipped.
AWD Mode
AWD provides torque to all four wheels.
Pressing the AWD Mode switch will select
AWD Mode. The AWD light will flash briefly
while the system is engaging and stay on to
indicate AWD is active. AWD Mode can be
turned on and off independently of other
modes. Select AWD Mode to improve
traction and control on slippery road
surfaces, such as gravel, sand, wet
pavement, snow, and ice. For more
information on AWD, see
All-Wheel Drive
0 222.
Tow/Haul Mode
This mode will automatically activate AWD,
if available. The transmission holds lower
gears longer before shifting to provide more
torque necessary when towing heavy loads.
This will also increase fuel consumption.
Tow/Haul Mode also modifies, steering, ESC,
TCS, and suspension tuning, if equipped. Use
this mode to assist in maintaining desired vehicle speeds when driving on downhill
grades by using the engine and transmission
to slow the vehicle.
This helps prevent the brakes from
overheating. For more information, see
Towing the Vehicle
0323.
Cruise Control
With cruise control the vehicle can maintain
a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more
without keeping your foot on the
accelerator. Cruise control does not work at
speeds below 40 km/h (25 mph).
{Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady
speed. Do not use cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
