Oldsmobile 1998 Aurora

This light will come on
when your traction control
TRACTION
ACTIVE
system is limiting wheel
spin. See “Traction Control
System Active Light” in
the Index.
You may
feel or hear the system working, but this
is normal.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction
control system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise
control will automatically disengage. When road
conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may
reengage the cruise control. (See “Cruise Control” in
the Index.)
TRACTION
OFF
This light should come
on briefly when you start
the engine.
If it stays on
or comes on while you
are drrving, there’s a
problem with your
traction control system.
See “Traction Control System Warning Light” in the
Index. When this warning light is on, the system will
not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
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.)
