The traction control system automatically comes on
whenever you start your vehicle. To limit wheel
spin, especially in slippery road conditions, you should
always leave the system on. But you can turn the
traction control system off if you ever need to.
Notice: Do not repeatedly brake or accelerate
heavily when the TCS is off. You could damage your
vehicle’s driveline.
When the TCS is switched off on AWD vehicles, you
may still feel the system working. This is normal
and necessary with the AWD hardware on your vehicle.
You should turn the system off if your vehicle ever
gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and rocking the vehicle
is required. See “Rocking Your Vehicle” under If You
Are Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on page 4-44 for
more information. See also Winter Driving on page 4-40
for information on using TCS when driving in snowy
or icy conditions.
To turn the system off,
press the TC (traction
control) button located
near the shift lever.
If you press the TC button once, the traction control
system will turn off and the traction control system
warning light will come on. Press the TC button again to
turn the system back on. If you press and hold the
TC button for five seconds, the Stabilitrak
®
system and
the traction control system will turn off. Press the
TC button again to turn Stabilitrak
®
back on. For more
information, see Stabilitrak
®
System on page 4-11.
Magnetic Ride Control
Your vehicle may have Magnetic Ride Control that
automatically adjusts the ride of your vehicle.
Automatic ride control is achieved through a computer
used to control and monitor the suspension system.
The controller receives input from various sensors
to determine the proper system response. If the
controller detects a problem within the system, the DIC
will display a Service Suspension System message.
See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-64
for more information. See your dealer for service.
