WARNING   WARNING:  Operating your vehicle with the traction control disabled could lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.

Traction Control System OFF  Press the TCS Off button on the instrument panel to enable the mud/snow mode.
This is beneficial when your vehicle is stuck in snow or on a slippery road surface. This mode allows wheel spin to dig your vehicle out and allows you to rock your vehicle.
Press the switch again to select standard traction control. The system automatically selects standard traction control at the next ignition cycle.
System Indicator Light
Note:   If the traction control light does not flash during a traction control event or stays illuminated, the system is not functioning properly. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.
During traction control operation, the traction control light flashes rapidly and the engine does not rev-up when you press further on the accelerator. This is normal and is no reason for concern.
In mud/snow mode, the TCS OFF light illuminates on the instrument cluster. If a traction event occurs in either mode, the stability and traction control light flashes rapidly.
