Pontiac 2005 G6 Owner's Manual page 197

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
re-engage the cruise control. See Cruise Control
on page 3-10.
The Traction Control System operates in all transaxle
shift lever positions. But the system can upshift the
transaxle only as high as the shift lever position you've
chosen, so you should use the lower gears only
when necessary. See Automatic Transaxle Operation on
page 2-24.
This light, located on the
instrument panel, will come
on when your Traction
Control System is limiting
wheel spin.
When this warning light is on, the system will not limit
wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road conditions,
you should always leave the Traction Control System on.
But you can turn the system off if you prefer.
To turn the system on or off, press the traction control
button located under the climate controls.
When you turn the system off, the Traction Control
System warning light will come on and stay on. If the
Traction Control System is limiting wheel spin when you
press the button to turn the system off, the warning
light will come on – but 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 Control System
warning light should go off.
When the system is on,
this warning light, located
on the instrument panel
cluster, will come on to
let you know if there's
a problem.
