WARNING
Trailer sway control is an enhanced feature
of stability control system and
automatically detects when an attached
trailer starts to sway. This feature applies
your vehicle brakes at individual wheels
and if necessary, reduces engine power. If
the trailer begins to sway, slow your vehicle
down, pull safely to the side of the road
and check for correct load distribution.
See Towing a Trailer (page 185).
Note: Shift to 4L will deactivate trailer sway
control.
Note: Switching on the electronic locking
differential will turn off the system.
Note: To switch off the trailer sway control
as required, See Stability Control (page
