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 and rocking the vehicle is
required. See Rocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out
on page 224 and If Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud,
Ice, or Snow on page 224 for more information.

This light will flash when
your traction control
system is limiting wheel
spin.
The TCS button is located
on the instrument panel.
Press this button briefly to turn off the TCS. The TCS
warning light will be displayed on the instrument
panel. The traction control system can be activated
again by pressing the traction control button.
If the system is limiting wheel spin when you press the
button, the system will not turn off until there is no
longer a current need to limit wheel spin. You can turn
the system back on at any time by pressing the
button again. If the TCS light does not come on, you
may not have traction control and your vehicle should be
serviced at a dealer/retailer.
Adding non-dealer/non-retailer accessories can affect
your vehicle's performance. See Accessories and
Modifications on page 245 for more information.

Electronic Stability Program

OIE-ID = 1849214 Owner = sunder01 LMD = 25-jun-2007 LMB = sunder01
Your vehicle has an Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
system which combines antilock brake, traction and
stability control systems and helps the driver maintain
directional control of the vehicle in most driving
conditions.
When you first start your vehicle and begin to drive
away, the system performs several diagnostic checks to
ensure there are no problems. You may hear or feel
the system working. This is normal and does not mean
there is a problem with your vehicle.
