CHEVROLET 2010 HHR - Manual (Page 193)

This light, along with the appropriate Driver Information
Center (DIC) messages, indicates when the ESC
system and the TCS are working or are disabled.
If the light comes on and stays on, the TCS and
potentially the ESC system have been disabled. Check
the DIC messaging to determine which system is
turned off, or not working. If the system is not working,
the vehicle needs service. See your dealer/retailer.
When the TCS is disabled, wheel spin is not limited.
When the ESC system is disabled, the system does not
aid in maintaining vehicle directional control.
If the light comes on and flashes, the TCS or the ESC
system is actively working. When the LOW TRACTION
message appears, the system is limiting wheel spin.
When the ESC ACTIVE message appears, the system
is aiding in maintaining vehicle directional control.
See Electronic Stability Control (ESC) on page 5-6 and
Traction Control System (TCS) on page 5-9 for more
information.
See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-48 for
more information on the messages associated with
this light.
