If you used the button to turn the system off, the TRAC OFF light will come on and stay on. You can turn the system back on at any time by pressing the button again. The TRAC OFF light should go off. If desired, you can change the TCS automatic engagement feature so that the system will not come on automatically when the engine is started. To do so: 1. Park the vehicle with the ignition off and the transmission in PARK (P). 2. Turn the ignition to RUN; do not start the engine. 3. Apply the brake pedal, press the accelerator pedal to the floor and then press the TCS on/off button and hold it down for at least six seconds. 4. Release the TCS button and both pedals. 5. Turn off the ignition and wait a few seconds. The next time you start your vehicle, the TCS will not automatically come on. You can restore the automatic feature by using the same procedure. Whether the TCS is set to come on automatically or not, you can always turn the system on or off by pressing the TCS on/off button. StabilitrakR System (All-Wheel Drive) Your vehicle may have the Stabilitrak system, which helps the driver maintain directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. This is accomplished by selectively applying either of the vehicle's front brakes and/or momentarily reducing engine power. When you first start your vehicle and begin to drive away, the Stabilitrak system performs several diagnostic checks to insure that there are no problems. The green light near the Stabilitrak switch will turn on when the diagnostic checks are complete and the stability enhancement system is ready to activate if needed. The light will come on only after the vehicle reaches a speed of at least 10 mph. The STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message will come on when the system is operating. See "Message Center" in the Index for more information. You may also feel or hear the system working. This is normal. 4-11
