If the Traction Control system is activated excessively in a short period
of time, the brake portion of the system will shut down to allow the
brakes to cool down. A limited Traction Control function using only
engine power reduction will still help control the wheels from
over-spinning. When the brakes have cooled down, the system will again
function normally. Anti-lock braking is not affected by this condition and
will function normally during the cool-down period.
If a system fault is detected, the traction control switch’s OFF indicator
will illuminate and your vehicle should be serviced by an authorized
dealer.
AdvanceTrac
姞
Stability Enhancement System (if equipped)
The AdvanceTrac
威
system provides a stability enhancement feature as
well as a traction enhancement feature. It helps your vehicle maintain
traction, when driving on slippery and/or hilly road surfaces, by detecting
and controlling wheel spin. Excessive wheel spin is controlled by
momentarily reducing engine power and rapidly applying the anti-lock
brakes. The system is a driver aid which makes your vehicle easier to
handle primarily on snow and ice-covered roads.
If your vehicle should become stuck in deep snow or mud, try switching
the AdvanceTrac
威
system off by pressing the AdvanceTrac
威
button. This
will allow your tires to “dig” for traction.
If the AdvanceTrac
威
system is activated excessively in a short period of
time, the brake portion of the system will shut down to allow the brakes
to cool down. A limited AdvanceTrac
威
function using only engine power
reduction will still help control the wheels from over-spinning. When the
brakes have cooled down, the system will again function normally.
Anti-lock braking is not affected by this condition and will function
normally during the cool-down period.
AdvanceTrac
威
enhances your vehicle’s stability during maneuvers that
require all available tire traction, like in wet/snowy/icy road conditions
and/or when performing emergency maneuvers. In an emergency
lane-change, the driver will experience better overall vehicle traction,
and have better control of the vehicle.
The AdvanceTrac
威
system helps the driver maintain steering control if
the vehicle begins to slide excessively left or right or spin out.
AdvanceTrac
威
will attempt to correct the sliding motion by applying
brake force at individual tires and, if necessary, by reducing engine
power.
