娂
enhances your vehicle’s stability during maneuvers that
require all available tire traction, like in wet/snowy/icy road conditions
and/or when performing emergency maneuvers. In an emergency

Accelerating on a slippery surface
•
Taking a turn too fast
•
Maneuvering quickly to avoid an accident, pedestrian or obstacle
•
Hitting a patch of ice
•
Changing lanes on a snow-rutted road
•
Entering a snow-free road from a snow-covered side street, or vice
versa
•
Entering a paved road from a gravel road, or vice versa
•
Hitting a curb while turning
•
Cornering at excessive speeds while towing a heavily loaded trailer
(refer to

娂
system automatically turns on when the engine is
started. However, the system does not function when the vehicle is
traveling in R (Reverse).
If you are operating the speed control system and road conditions
change causing the AdvanceTrac
娂
to activate, the AdvanceTrac
娂
will
disengage the speed control. When driving conditions permit, you can
return to speed control by pressing RESUME. Refer to
Speed control
in
