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 AdvanceTrac
system 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 AdvanceTrac
system press the AdvanceTrac
control switch. Full features of the
AdvanceTrac
system can be
restored by pressing the
AdvanceTrac
control switch again
or by turning off and restarting the engine.
When the AdvanceTrac
system is
off, the “sliding car off” icon
will
illuminate steadily. Pressing the
AdvanceTrac
control switch again
will turn off the “sliding car off”
icon.
In R (Reverse), ABS and the engine and brake traction control features
will continue to function; however, ESC is disabled.
