Page: 168 / 287

Operation
A YELLOW warning indicator on the instrument panel indicates
the status of the ABS. Each time the ignition is turned ON the
indicator comes ON and the system goes through an ABS
self-check sequence. If the system is working normally when
the ignition is turned ON, the ABS indicator comes ON then
flashes twice, and finally the ABS indicator remains ON for
several seconds before turning OFF.
Pedal Adjustment Switch (If Equipped)
The pedal adjustment switch (optional) allows the operator to
reposition the power-adjustable pedals to enhance comfort and
safety.
The pedals can be repositioned closer to or further
away from the operator. For more information on pedal switch
operation, refer to the
Driver Controls section of this manual.
Manual Pedal Adjustment
Adjustment of brake pedal free travel should not be necessary. In
the event adjustment is necessary, it is extremely important that
the work be properly performed. Allow only qualified technicians
to perform this operation.
Traction Control
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and / or death, or
damage to property, drivers operating a Traction
Control equipped vehicle should employ safe
driving practices and assume no additional
driving risks.
Traction Control systems are
designed to enhance overall vehicle safety when
a vehicle is driven within its safe operating limits.
Traction Control cannot compensate for a vehicle
which is being driven beyond the physical limits
of control.
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional Traction Control
system which helps you maintain the stability and steerability
of your vehicle, especially on snow- or ice-covered roads and
gravel roads.
It reduces engine power and / or selectively
applies the rear brakes. The system allows your vehicle to
make better use of available traction in these conditions by
also limiting the engine rpm when you push further on the
accelerator, which limits wheel spin. The TRAC CTRL indicator
in the Instrument Panel Gauge Cluster will illuminate during
this Traction Control event. The TRAC CTRL indicator will also
illuminate if the system is malfunctioning.
