PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoiddrive wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the systemapplies the brakes to individual wheelsand, when needed, reduces engine powerat the same time. If the wheels spin whenaccelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,the system reduces engine power in orderto increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING: Operating your vehiclewith the traction control disabled couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
The system automatically turns on eachtime you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,switching traction control off may bebeneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note:When you switch traction control off,stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System Off
When you switch the system off,a message and an illuminatedicon appear on the instrumentcluster.
Use the switch again to return the tractioncontrol system to normal operation.
The switch for the stability and tractioncontrol system is on the instrument panel.
Your vehicle could have MyKey restrictionsregarding this feature. See What IsMyKey (page 63).

Zone coverage also decreases whenparking at narrow angles. The sensor onthe left-hand side is mostly obstructed andzone coverage on that side is severelyreduced.
Cross Traffic Alert SystemLimitations
The system may not correctly operatewhen any of the following occur:
•Something blocks the sensors.
•Adjacently parked vehicles or objectsobstruct the sensors.
•Vehicles approach at speeds less than4 mph (6 km/h) or greater than 37 mph(60 km/h).
•The vehicle speed is greater than 7 mph(12 km/h).
•You reverse out of an angled parkingspace.

How to Burnish the Brakes
Initial low temperature bedding:
•If your brakes already have 200 mi(322 km) or more of city driving, skipthis step and go directly to the hightemperature bedding cycle procedure.Otherwise, perform at least 30 stopsfrom 50 mph (80 km/h) at 1/3 gdeceleration with 1 mi (1.2 km) spacingbetween stops. A deceleration gaugecan be accessed through theTrackApps menu in your instrumentdisplay.
High temperature bedding cycle:
•Beginning with cool brakes, perform 15consecutive stops back to back,accelerating at 3/4 throttle to 80 mph(128 km/h) and braking to 20 mph(32 km/h) at 1.0 g deceleration. Thebrakes may omit an odor or smokeduring this part of the procedure.
Cool down:
•Cool the brakes down by driving one ortwo laps,5 mi (8 km), at 60 mph(96 km/h) with minimal to no brakeusage.
Recovery low temperature bedding:
•Perform at least 30 stops from 50 mph(80 km/h) at 13 g deceleration with0.7 mi (1.2 km) spacing between stops.A deceleration gauge can be accessedthrough the TrackApps menu in theinstrument cluster display.
