The BRAKE warning lamp will
illuminate and will remain
illuminated until the parking brake
is released.
The parking brake will automatically disengage when the gearshift lever
is moved from P (Park) with the ignition in the ON position or if the
engine is running. The parking brake will also disengage if a gear is
selected and the accelerator pedal is depressed.
If the battery is disconnected (or removed), it will be necessary to reset
the parking brake; the message center will display APPLY PARK BRAKE
followed by FOOT ON BRAKE or APPLY ((P)) followed by FOOT BRK.
With the ignition on and the engine not running, depress the brake pedal
and apply the parking brake. The brake lamp will illuminate; this is
normal and the parking brake is now reset. To release the parking brake,
push the lever down with your foot on the brake pedal.
If there is a failure in the parking brake system, the amber warning light
on the parking brake control will illuminate. See your authorized dealer
for service on the parking brake system.
TRACTION CONTROL
姟
The Traction Control
娂
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, the traction control active light will
illuminate, 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 center console by the
gearshift lever, has an indicator light
that illuminates when the system is
off. The Traction Control
娂
system
will automatically turn on every time
the ignition is turned off and on.
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.
