STABILITRAK OFF
This message displays when you turn off StabiliTrak ® ,
or when the stability control has been automatically
disabled. To limit wheel spin and realize the full benefits
of the stability enhancement system, you should
normally leave StabiliTrak
® on. However, you should
turn StabiliTrak ® off if your vehicle gets stuck in
sand, mud, ice, or snow and you want to rock your
vehicle to attempt to free it, or if you are driving
in extreme off-road conditions and require more wheel
spin. See If Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud,
Ice, or Snow on page 4-32. To turn the StabiliTrak
®
system on or off, see StabiliTrak ® System on page 4-7.

warning light is on. See Brake System Warning
