if your vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud, ice or snow and
you want to “rock” your vehicle to attempt to free it, or if
you are driving in extreme off-road conditions and require
more wheel spin. SeeIf You Are Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice
or Snow on page 4-50. To turn the Stabilitrak
®system
back on press the Stabilitrak®button again. There are

system warning light is on. SeeBrake System Warning
Light on page 3-46. The message could be displayed if
the stability system takes longer than usual to complete
its diagnostic checks due to driving conditions. Also, if an
engine or vehicle related problem has been detected, and
the vehicle needs service, the message will appear.
The message will turn off as soon as the conditions that
caused the message to be displayed are no longer
present.
