WARNING: If a failure has been detected within the
AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC௡ system, the Љsliding carЉ icon

will

illuminate steadily. Verify that the AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC௡ system is

not manually disabled (push the AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC௡ “Off “

button located on the center of the instrument panel). If the

Љsliding

car

Љ icon

still illuminates steadily, have the system service 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 provides the following stability

enhancement features for certain driving situations:
• Traction Control (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

• Roll Stability Control™ (RSC௡), which functions to help avoid a

vehicle roll-over.

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

௡ ЉOffЉ 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 temporarily during
start-up as part of a normal system self-check, or during driving 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௡ ЉOffЉ button located on the center stack of

the instrument panel. If the “sliding car” icon

remains steadily

illuminated, or if the message center (if equipped) displays SERVICE
RSC NOW, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately.
