This light should come on
briefly when you start the
engine. If it stays on or comes
on while you are driving,
there’s a problem with your
traction control system.
See “Traction Control System Warning Light” in the
Index. When this warning light is on, the system will not
limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
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. See “Rocking Your Vehicle” in the Index.
To turn the system off, press
the TRACTION button on
the black panel located
directly behind your
automatic transaxle
shift lever.
The traction control system warning light will come on
and stay on.
You can turn the system back on at any time by pressing
the button again. The traction control system warning
light should go off.
