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 stability control
switch. Full features of the
AdvanceTrac

௡ system can be

restored by pressing the switch
again or by turning off and
restarting the engine.

When the AdvanceTrac

௡ system is

off, the stability control off light will
illuminate steadily. Pressing the
stability control switch again will
turn off the stability control off
light.

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