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.
(You
should
turn
the
system off
if
your vehicle ever gets stuck
in
sand, mud, ice or snow. See “Rocking Your Vehicle”
in
the Index.)

To
turn
the system off,
press the TRACTION
CONTROL button on
the center console.
The TRACTION
OFF warning
light
will
come on and
stay on.
If
the system is limiting wheel spin
when
you
press the button,
the
system won’t turn
off
right
away.
It
will
wait
until
there’s
no
longer a current need to limit
wheel spin.
You can
turn
the system back on
at
any time by pressing
the button again. The TRACTION
OFF
warning light
should go
off.
Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to.
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time.
In
many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.
