Switching off Traction Control

If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose engine
power, switching off the traction Control features of the AdvanceTrac

spin. This will restore full engine power and will enhance momentum
through the obstacle.

press the AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC௡

button. Full features of the TCS can
be restored by pressing the
AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC௡ button

again or by turning off and restarting the engine.

If you switch off the Traction
Control, the “sliding car off”
icon

will illuminate steadily.

Pressing the AdvanceTrac

௡ with

RSC

௡ button again will turn off the

“sliding car off” icon.

In R (Reverse), ABS and the engine traction control and brake traction
control features will continue to function; however, ESC and RSC

disabled.
