TRACTION CONTROL
姟
For Traction Control
娂
warning lights refer to Warning Lights in the
Instrument cluster chapter.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Traction Control
娂
system (except on
commercial conversion packages). This system helps you maintain the
stability and steerability of your vehicle, especially on slippery road
surfaces such as snow- or ice-covered roads and gravel roads. The
system will allow your vehicle to make better use of available traction in
these conditions.
During Traction Control
娂
operation, you may hear an electric motor
type of sound coming from the engine compartment and the engine will
not “rev-up” when you push further on the accelerator. This is normal
system behavior and should be no reason for concern.
The Traction Control
娂
switch,
located on the left side of the
instrument panel, allows the driver
to enable and disable the system.
The Traction Control
娂
system will
automatically turn on every time the
ignition is turned OFF and RUN.
If you should become stuck in snow
or ice or on a very slippery road surface, try switching the Traction
Control
娂
system off. This may allow excess wheel spin to “dig” the
vehicle out and enable a successful “rocking” maneuver.
