WHAT IS LAUNCH CONTROL
Note:
Only use this feature in a controlled
environment, such as a track. Launch control
is not for use in normal driving.
Note: Launch control is not available when
in the Wet drive mode.
Your vehicle has a launch control feature
that uses clutch and engine controls to
reduce wheel spin or slip on a hard
acceleration from a standing start.
To operate launch control, your vehicle
must meet the following conditions:
• You must be in any drive mode other
than Wet drive mode.
• You must close the doors, front hood
and rear hatch.
• Your vehicle should be on a level
surface.
• You must disengage the electric park
brake.
• You must be at a complete stop with
the brake pedal applied and the
transmission selector in drive (D).
• Transmission clutch fluid temperature
must be in the normal operating
temperature range.
• No powertrain or brake system warning
indicators are active.
Launch Control remains active until:
• You switch the feature off through the
display screen.
• Your vehicle no longer meets the
conditions required for launch control
to operate. USING LAUNCH CONTROL
To use Launch Control:
•
Activate the launch control feature
through the display screen. See
General Information (page 74).
• When activated, the LC icon appears
in white inside the instrument cluster.
• With your vehicle at a complete stop,
hold the brake pedal firmly and press
the accelerator pedal to wide open
throttle.
• When the engine reaches the required
RPM and your vehicle meets all other
system requirements, the LC icon turns
from white to green and the vehicle is
ready to launch.
• Quickly release the brake pedal and
carefully steer your vehicle when it
accelerates from a stop. The launch
control feature controls wheel spin as
you accelerate.
• After completing the run and stopping,
the LC icon returns to white.
• If any operating conditions are not
within specification, the LC icon turns
grey with a strikethrough.
• You can switch launch control off
through the display screen.
See
General Information (page 74).
