NOTE
l
When DSC is on and you attempt to free the
vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it out of
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.
l
If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine is
turned off, it automatically activates when
the ignition is switched ON.
l
Leaving the TCS/DSC on will provide the
best stability.
l
The DSC only operates when the brake
pedal is depressed strongly while driving
and it is determined that operation of the
DSC is required, even if the DSC OFF
indicator light illuminates by pressing the
DSC OFF switch for two or three seconds.
l
The TCS/DSC can be cancelled. By
pressing the DSC OFF switch for about five
seconds, the TCS/DSC indicator light
flashes three times, the DSC OFF indicator
light illuminates, and the TCS/DSC is
cancelled.
The TCS/DSC remains cancelled until the
ignition is switched off. When the ignition is
switched from OFF to ON, the system turns
back on automatically.
