pg. 20 STC/DSTC
Stability Traction Control (STC)*/ Dynamic Stability Traction
Control (DSTC)**
The stability systems consist of a number of functions:
The following two functions are common to both STC/DSTC
1. Traction control (TC)
This function is designed to help reduce wheel spin by transferring powe\
r from a drive wheel that begins
to lose traction to the wheel on the opposite side of the car (on the s\
ame axle). TC monitors and
compares the rotational speed of the drive wheels. If one of the drive w\
heels shows a tendency to spin,
the difference in speed is immediately detected. This triggers the Anti-\
lock Brake System, which brakes
the spinning wheel until the difference in rotational speed is corrected\
.
TC is most active at low speeds, and a pulsating sound will be audible w\
hen the system is regulating
wheel spin. This is quite normal.
This is one of the STC/DSTC's permanent functions and is not affected wh\
en the button on the center
control panel is pressed.
2. Spin control (SC)
The spin control function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels f\
rom spinning while the car is
