1Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System
In certain unusual conditions when your vehicle gets
stuck in shallow mud or fresh snow, it may be easier
to free it with the VSA temporarily switched off.
When the (VSA OFF) button is pressed, the
traction control function becomes less effective. This
allows for the wheels to spin more freely at low
speed. You should only attempt to free your vehicle
with the VSA off if you are not able to free it when
the VSA is on.
Immediately after freeing your vehicle, be sure to
switch VSA on again. We do not recommend driving
your vehicle with the VSA system switched off.
You may hear a motor sound coming from the
engine compartment while system checks are being
performed immediately after turning the power
system on or while driving. This is normal.
