FORD 2010 F-150 v.2 - Manual (Page 275)

WARNING: If a failure has been detected within the
AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system, the “sliding car” icon
will
illuminate steadily. Verify that the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system is
not manually disabled (push the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ control
button located on the center of the instrument panel). If the “sliding
car” icon
still illuminates steadily, have the system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately. Operating your vehicle with
AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ disabled could lead to an increased risk of
loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
The AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system automatically enables each time
the engine is started. All features of the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system
(TCS, ESC, and RSC
௡) are active and monitor the vehicle from start-up.
However, the system will only intervene if the driving situation requires
it.
The AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡
system includes an AdvanceTrac
௡
with RSC
௡ control button on the
center of the instrument panel, and
a “sliding car” icon
in the
instrument cluster. The “sliding car”
icon
in the instrument cluster will illuminate if a driving situation
causes the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system to operate. If the “sliding
car” icon illuminates steadily, verify that the AdvanceTrac
௡ with
RSC
௡ system is not manually disabled by pressing the AdvanceTrac௡
with RSC
௡ button located on the center stack of the instrument panel. If
the “sliding car” icon remains steadily illuminated, have the system
serviced by an authorized dealer immediately.
Note: If the system cannot be turned off, refer to MyKey™ in the Locks
and Security chapter for more information.
