Low
Traction
Light
LOW
TRAC
When your anti-lock system
is
adjusting brake pressure
to
help avoid
a
braking skid,
this light will come
on.
If you
have
the
Enhanced
Traction System, this
light
will
also come on
when
the
system is limiting
wheel
spin. You
may
feel or hear
the
system
working,
but
this
is
normal.
Slippery
road
conditions
may
exist
if the
low
traction
light
comes on,
so
adjust
your
driving
accordingly.
The
light
will
stay
on
for a few
seconds
after
the
anti-lock
system
stops
adjusting
brake
pressure
or the
Enhanced
Traction
System
stops
limiting
wheel
spin.
If
the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed
so
it
will
be there to tell you when the anti-lock brake system or
Traction Control System is active.
Slippery road conditions may exist
if
the low traction
light comes on,
so
adjust your driving accordingly.
Engine
Coolant
Temperature
Gage
\ C
You have a gage that shows
the engine coolant
temperature. If
the
gage
moves into the red area,
your engine
is
too hot.
The
low traction light
also comes on briefly when
you
turn the ignition key to
ON.
If the
light
doesn’t
come
on
then, have
it
fixed
so
it will be there
to tell you when the
anti-lock brake system
or Enhanced Traction System
is active.
For the optional Traction Control System, the low
traction light comes on briefly when you
turn the
ignition to ON.
That reading means the same thing
as
the warning light.
It
means that your engine
coolant has overheated. If
you
have been operating your vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull
off
the road, stop your
vehicle and
turn
off
the engine as soon
as possible.
In “Problems on the Road,” this manual shows what to
do.
See “Engine Overheating”
in
the Index.
