Switching off AdvanceTrac
If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose engine
power, switching off certain features of the AdvanceTracsystem may be
beneficial because the wheels are allowed to spin. This will restore full
engine power and will enhance momentum through the obstacle.
To switch off the traction control
system, press the stability control
switch. Full features of the
AdvanceTracsystem can be
restored by pressing the stability control switch again or by turning off
and restarting the engine.
When the traction control system is
off, the stability control off light will
illuminate steadily. Pressing the
stability control switch again will
turn off the stability control off
light.
In R (Reverse), ABS and the engine and brake traction control features
will continue to function; however, ESC is disabled.
