Vehicle Dynamics Control OFF switch
When the switch is pressed briefly or for
more than approximately 3 seconds dur-
ing engine operation, the mode of the
Vehicle Dynamics Control System will be
changed.
! Vehicle Dynamics Control mode
When the ignition switch is on, this mode
is selected.
This mode enables all controls for ABS,
the Traction Control System, and the
Vehicle Dynamics Control system. Select
this mode for most driving situations.
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light on the combination meter turns off.
! Traction mode
This mode restricts the functions of the
Traction Co ntrol System and Veh icle
Dynamics Control system and thus delays
utilizing their functions as a reaction to

Vehicle Dynamics Control mode. This
mode should be used in driving situations
where the vehicle dynamic performance
will improve without decreasing engine

engine operation, the indicator light on the
combination meter illuminates in green.
When the switch is pressed again to
reactivate the Vehicle Dynamics Control

This mode should be used in an emer-

operation, the indicator light on the com-
bination meter illuminates in yellow. When
the switch is pressed again to reactivate
the Vehicle Dynamics Control system, the
indicator light turns off.
