TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM*
(WITH ANTI-LOCK BRAKE
SYSTEM)
The traction control system (TCS) is an ad-
vanced system that will help you to move
off on slippery surfaces.
If one of the wheels is on firm ground and
the other is on slippery ground such as
snow or mud.
If you then start to drive off, the wheel on
the slippery surface will spin and the car will
not move.
TCS can help you to prevent this by locking
and releasing the wheel on the slippery
surface.
When the ignition is switched on the TCS
warning light comes on with the ABS warn-
ing light.
It goes out after around 2 seconds. The TCS
warning light flashes when traction control
function is operating.
A fault with the TCS system will illuminate
the TCS warning light while the engine is
running.
If this condition occurs, consult your
Ssangyong Dealer as soon as possible.
STARTING AND OPERATING 2–17
WARNING
Excessive speeds increase the risk of
accidents.
The TCS system can neither elimi-
nate nor reduce any such risk.
NOTE
During driving, the TCS indicator
light flashes on only when the TCS
is operating.
NOTE
In the event of a defect of the anti-
lock braking system (ABS), the TCS
is shut off as well.
