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.

The AdvanceTrac

௡ button can be

used to enable unique
AdvanceTrac

௡ modes.

Full features of the AdvanceTrac

system can be restored by pressing
the stability control button again or
by turning off and restarting the
engine.

When features of the AdvanceTrac

system are off, the stability control
off light will illuminate steadily.
Pressing the stability control button
again will turn off the stability
control off light.

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