Dynamometer Testing Vehicles with ATC
WARNING
The automatic traction control (ATC) function must be disabled
before any type of dynamometer testing is conducted on the
vehicle. If the ATC is not disabled, the vehicle ATC may actuate
and cause the vehicle to move forward without warning to the
operator. If the vehicle moves forward unexpectedly, the
vehicle may cause damage or injuries to individuals who are in
the path of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not cycle the vehicle ignition while the vehicle is on a
dynamometer. Cycling the vehicle ignition will enable the ATC.
