The AdvanceTracy on/off control
button allows the driver to control
the availability of the Traction
Controly and AdvanceTracy
system. This is independent of the
ABS function, which CANNOT be
switched off by the driver. The
AdvanceTracy system status is
indicated by a warning indicator
light with a “sliding car” icon in the
instrument cluster that will flash
when the system is active and an indicator light in the control button
that will illuminate when the system is turned OFF. In vehicles with a
message center (if equipped), the message “ADVANCETRAC OFF” is
displayed. If a failure is detected in the AdvanceTracy system the
warning indicator light in the instrument cluster will stay ON. If the
warning indicator light in the instrument cluster remains ON while the
engine is running, have the system serviced immediately.
The AdvanceTracy system continually monitors and checks all sensors
used in improving the stability of the vehicle. Some drivers may notice a
slight movement of the brake pedal when the system checks itself.
During AdvanceTracy operation you may experience the following:
A rumble or grinding sound much like ABS or Traction Controly
A slight deceleration or a reduction in the acceleration of the vehicle
The AdvanceTracy indicator light will flash
If your foot is on the brake pedal, you will feel a vibration in the pedal
much like ABS. As with any vehicle equipped with four-wheel ABS, do
not pump the brakes, but instead, press firmly on the pedal.
If the condition is severe and your foot is not on the brake, the brake
pedal will move to apply higher brake forces. You may also hear a
whoosh of air from under the instrument panel during this severe
condition.
All these conditions are normal during AdvanceTracy operation.
