Leave the system on during ordinary
driving so that it can operate when
needed. When traction control is ap-
plied, the slip indicator light blinks. If
your vehicle still skids even though
traction control is applied, more power-
ful traction control is applied and the
”SNOW” indicator light comes on.
You may hear a slight clicking noise in
the engine compartment when the engine
is started. This means that the traction
control system is in the self − check mode,
and does not indicate malfunction. When
the traction control system is operating,
you may feel vibration of your vehicle,
caused by operation of the brakes. This
indicates the system is functioning proper-
ly.
When getting the vehicle out of mud or
new snow, etc. the traction control system
will help operate to prevent the wheels
from spinning.
MANUAL SNOW OPERATION
You can select the snow mode by push-
ing the ”SNOW” switch. The ”SNOW”
indicator light will come on.
To select the automatic mode, push the
”OFF” switch. The ”SNOW” indicator
light will go off. If your vehicle still
skids, the system automatically oper-
ates.
MANUAL TRACTION CONTROL OFF OP-
ERATION
You can turn off the traction control
system by pushing the ”OFF” switch.
The ”TRAC OFF” indicator/warning light
will come on. Pushing the ”OFF” switch
a second time turns on the traction
control system and the ”TRAC OFF”
indicator/warning light will go off.
If the ”SNOW” indicator light is on,
pushing the ”OFF” switch once selects
the outomatic mode and pushing it a
second time turns off the traction con-
trol system.
