Driving

This button is on the driver side control panel.
To partially turn the VSA features on and off,
press and hold it until you hear a beep.

The traction control stops fully functioning,
allowing the wheels to spin more freely at low
speed. The VSA® OFF indicator will also come
on.

To turn it on again, press the (VSA® OFF)
button until you hear a beep.

VSA® is turned on every time you turn the
power system on, even if you press the button
the last time you drove the vehicle.

Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA®), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), System

With the

button pressed, your vehicle will have

normal braking and cornering ability, but VSA®
traction and stability enhancement becomes less
effective.

In certain unusual conditions when your vehicle gets
stuck in shallow mud or fresh snow, it may be easier
to free it with the

button pressed.

When the

button is pressed, the traction control

function becomes less effective. This allows for the
wheels to spin more freely at low speed. You should
only attempt to free your vehicle with the

button

pressed if you are not able to free it without.

Immediately after freeing your vehicle, be sure to
press the

button again. We do not recommend

driving your vehicle with the

button pressed

(indicator on).

You may hear a motor sound coming from the
engine compartment while system checks are being
performed immediately after turning the power
system on or while driving. This is normal.
