TRACTION CONTROL姟
For Traction Control娂 warning lights refer to Warning Lights in the
Instrument cluster chapter.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Traction Control娂 system (except on
commercial conversion packages). This system helps you maintain the
stability and steerability of your vehicle, especially on slippery road
surfaces such as snow- or ice-covered roads and gravel roads. The
system will allow your vehicle to make better use of available traction in
these conditions.
During Traction Control娂 operation, you may hear an electric motor
type of sound coming from the engine compartment and the engine will
not “rev-up” when you push further on the accelerator. This is normal
system behavior and should be no reason for concern.
The Traction Control娂 switch,
located on the left side of the
instrument panel, allows the driver
to enable and disable the system.
The Traction Control娂 system will
automatically turn on every time the
ignition is turned OFF and RUN.
If you should become stuck in snow
or ice or on a very slippery road surface, try switching the Traction
Control娂 system off. This may allow excess wheel spin to “dig” the
vehicle out and enable a successful “rocking” maneuver.
