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" in the
Index.)
The "TCS OFF" warning light will come
on when you turn the traction control
system off. When the system is on, this
light will come on to let you know if
there's a problem with your traction
control system. 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.
