WARNING:
If a failure has been detected within the
AdvanceTrac
威
system, the stability control light will illuminate
steadily, and you may hear a chime. If equipped with a message center,
the vehicle will also indicate a failure with the brake system. Have the
system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately.
The AdvanceTrac
威
system automatically enables each time the engine is
started. All features of the AdvanceTrac
威
system (TCS and ESC) are
active and monitor the vehicle from start-up. However, the system will
only intervene if the driving situation requires it.
The AdvanceTrac

instrument cluster will illuminate temporarily during start-up as part of a
normal system self-check. The stability control light may illuminate
(flash) during certain driving situations which cause the AdvanceTrac
威
system to operate. If the stability control light illuminates steadily, have
the system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately. If equipped
with a message center, the vehicle will also indicate a failure with the
AdvanceTrac
威
system.
When AdvanceTrac
威
performs a normal system self-check, some drivers
may notice a slight movement of the brake, and/or a rumble, grunting, or
grinding noise after startup and when driving off.

威
