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.

press the button located
on the center console.
