Using Traction Control - Vehicles With: Hydraulic Brakes
Use the traction control button on the instrument panel to switch the system off or on.
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. |
The system turns on each time you switch the ignition on.
Use the traction control button on the instrument panel to switch the system off or on.If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, switching traction control off is beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Press the button again to switch the traction control system on.
System Indicator Light
Note:
If the traction control light does not flash during a traction control event or stays on, the system is not operating. Have the system checked as soon as possible.
During a traction control event, the traction control light rapidly flashes. Pressing further on the accelerator does not cause the engine to rev higher. This is normal and is no reason for concern.
When the system turns the traction control off, the OFF light illuminates on the instrument cluster. If a traction event occurs in either mode, the stability and traction control light rapidly flashes.
