PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Electronic Stability Program

WARNINGS

The system does not relieve you of

your responsibility to drive with due

care and attention. Failure to drive

with due care and attention could lead to

loss of vehicle control.

Vehicle modifications involving

braking system, aftermarket roof

racks, suspension, steering system,

tire construction and wheel and tire size

may change the handling characteristics

of the vehicle and may adversely affect

the performance of the AdvanceTrac

system. In addition, installing any stereo

loudspeakers may interfere with and

adversely affect the AdvanceTrac system.

Install any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker

as far as possible from the front center

console, the tunnel, and the front seats in

order to minimize the risk of interfering with

the AdvanceTrac sensors. Reducing the

effectiveness of the AdvanceTrac system

could lead to an increased risk of loss of

vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal

injury and death.

Remember that even advanced

technology cannot defy the laws of

physics. It’s always possible to lose

control of a vehicle due to inappropriate

driver input for the conditions. Aggressive

driving on any road condition can cause

you to lose control of your vehicle

increasing the risk of personal injury or

property damage. Activation of the

AdvanceTrac system is an indication that

at least some of the tires have exceeded

their ability to grip the road; this could

reduce the operator’ s ability to control the

vehicle potentially resulting in a loss of

vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal

injury and death. If your AdvanceTrac

system activates, SLOW DOWN.

With Advance TracB

The system supports stability when your

vehicle starts to slide away from your

intended path. This is performed by braking

individual wheels and reducing engine

torque as needed.

The system also provides an enhanced

traction control function by reducing

engine torque if the wheels spin when you

accelerate. This improves your ability to

pull away on slippery roads or loose

surfaces, and improves comfort by limiting

wheel spin in hairpin bends.

Stability Control Warning Lamp

While driving, it flashes when the system

is operating. See Warning Lamps and

Indicators (page 76).
