STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
The AdvanceTrac
௡ system provides the following stability enhancement
features for certain driving situations:
• Traction control system (TCS), which functions to help avoid
drive-wheel spin and loss of traction.
• Electronic stability control (ESC), which functions to help avoid skids
or lateral slides
WARNING: Vehicle modifications involving braking system,
aftermarket roof racks, suspension, steering system, tire
construction and/or wheel/tire size may change the handling
characteristics of the vehicle and may adversely affect the performance
of the AdvanceTrac
௡ system. In addition, installing any stereo
loudspeakers may interfere with and adversely affect the AdvanceTrac
௡
system. Install any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker as far as possible
from the front center console, the tunnel, and the front seats in order
to minimize the risk of interfering with the AdvanceTrac
௡ sensors.
Reducing the effectiveness of the AdvanceTrac
௡ system could lead to
an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death.
