PERFORMANCE & MAINTENANCE
Traction Control System
The Traction Control
System turns on every
time you start your
vehicle. When one or
more of the drive
wheels begin to spin
from traction loss, the
Traction Control System will reduce
engine power, indicated by a flashing
light on the instrument panel. The front
brakes may be applied and the transaxle
may upshift to help regain traction. If
your vehicle becomes stuck and rocking
the vehicle is required, the system
should be turned off.
To turn off the Traction Control System,
press the
(Traction Control) button
located behind the center console
cupholders. When the system is turned
off, the traction control light will
illuminate.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.
StabiliTrak
– Stability Control
®
System (if equipped)
StabiliTrak is an advanced computer-
controlled vehicle stability system that
assists with directional control of the
vehicle in difficult driving conditions. It
turns on automatically every time you
start your vehicle.
When the system senses a discrepancy
between your intended path and the
direction the vehicle is actually traveling,
it selectively applies brake pressure at
any one of the wheels to help steer the
vehicle in the direction in which you are
steering.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.
TAPshift (if equipped)
You can enjoy the sporty driving charac-
teristics provided by a manual transaxle
with the TAPshift feature.
To change gears similar to a manual
transaxle:
1. Move the shift lever
to Manual (M).
2. Press the shift plus
(+) paddle (A)
located on top of
the steering wheel
forward to upshift,
or press the back
of the shift paddle
(B) behind the
steering wheel
toward you to
downshift.
The Driver Information Center (DIC) in
the instrument panel cluster will display
the letter M for manual position and a
