DSC OFF Indicator Light
The indicator light stays on for a few
seconds when the ignition is placed in the
ON
mode. It also illuminates when the DSC
OFF switch is pressed and TCS/DSC is
switched off.
If the light remains illuminated and the TCS/
DS
C is not switched off, contact your autho-
rized dealer. The DSC may have a malfunc-
tion.
DSC OFF Switch
Push the switch to turn off the TCS/DSC. The
indicator light in the instrument cluster
will illuminate. Push the switch again to turn
t
h
e TCS/DSC back on. The indicator light will
turn off.
DSC OFF Switch
NOTE:
When DSC is on and you attempt to free
the vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it out
on freshly fallen snow, the TCS (part of the
DSC system) will activate. Depressing the
accelerator will not increase engine power
and freeing the vehicle may be difficult.
When this happens, turn off the TCS/DSC.
If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine is
turned off, it automatically activates when
the ignition is placed in the ON mode.
WARNING!
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase
the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. DSC cannot prevent acci
-
dents, including those resulting from
ex
cessive speed in turns, driving on very
slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. DSC
also cannot prevent accidents resulting
from loss of vehicle control due to inap
-
propriate driver input for the conditions.
On
ly a safe, attentive, and skillful driver
can prevent accidents. The capabilities
of an DSC equipped vehicle must never
be exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner which could jeopardize the
user’s safety or the safety of others.
