If the Traction Control System (TCS) is on and you drive
faster than 100 mph (161 km/h), the system will turn
off and the TC warning light will come on. The TCS will
turn back on and the TC warning light will go out
once the vehicle speed falls below 90 mph (145 km/h).
See Traction Control System (TCS) Warning Light
on page 3-32.
To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road
conditions, you should always leave the Traction Control
System on. But you can turn the 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 to Get It Out on page 4-28 and If Your Vehicle
is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on page 4-28
for more information.
To turn the system on or
off, press the traction
control button located on
your center console
switchbank. See Center
Console Switchbank on
page 3-19 for more
information.
When you turn the system off, the Traction Control
System warning light will come on and stay on. If the
Traction Control System is limiting wheel spin when you
press the button to turn the system off, the warning
light will come on and the system will turn off right away.
You can turn the system back on at any time by
pressing the button again. The Traction Control System
warning light should go off.
