Driver Controls The AdvanceTracT indicator light will flash: • If your foot is on the brake pedal, you will feel a vibration in the pedal much like ABS. As with any vehicle equipped with fourĆwheel ABS, do not pump the brakes, but instead, press firmly on the pedal. • If your foot is not on the brake, the brake pedal will move to apply higher brake forces. You may also hear a whoosh of air from under the instrument panel during the event. All these conditions are normal during AdvanceTracT operation. The AdvanceTracT system defaults to ON when the engine is started. The system does not work when the vehicle is traveling backwards. In reverse, the ABS and Traction ControlT systems will continue to function. The AdvanceTracT system continually monitors and checks all sensors used in improving the stability of the vehicle. Some drivers may notice a slight movement of the brake pedal when the system checks itself. 106
