See "Traction Control System Warning Light" in the
Index. 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 ever need to. You should turn the system off if
your vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and
rocking the vehicle is required. See "Rocking Your
Vehicle" in the Index.

When the system is on,
this warning light will come
on to let you know if there's
a problem.
When you turn the system off, a chime will sound and
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 and the system will
turn off right away.
You can turn the system back on at any time by pressing
the button again. The Traction Control System warning
light should go off.
To turn the system
on or off, press the
TRAC OFF button
on the console.
