failure to initialize.
Notice: If the StabiliTrak
®
light comes on due to
heavy braking and/or because the traction control
system has been continuously active, do not
allow the wheel(s) of one axle to spin excessively.
If you do, you may be causing damage to the
transfer case. This could lead to costly repairs
not covered by
your warranty.
Notice: If you allow the wheel(s) of one axle to spin
excessively while the StabiliTrak
®
, ABS and brake
warning lights and the SERVICE STABILITRAK
message are displayed, you could damage the
transfer case. The repairs would not be covered
by your warranty. Reduce engine power and do not
spin the wheel(s) excessively while these lights
and this message are displayed.
StabiliTrak
®
may activate on dry or rough roads or under
conditions such as heavy acceleration while turning or
abrupt upshifts/downshifts of the transmission. When this
happens, you may notice a reduction in acceleration, or
may hear a noise or vibration. This is normal.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the system
activates, the StabiliTrak
®
light will blink, and the
cruise control will automatically disengage. When
road conditions allow, you may re-engage the cruise
control. See Cruise Control on page 3-11.
StabiliTrak
®
will turn off automatically if a problem is
detected in the system. The StabiliTrak
®
light will come
on and SERVICE STABILITRAK will be displayed on
the DIC. For vehicles without a DIC, the StabiliTrak
®
light and the StabiliTrak
®
service light will both come on.
