When you turn the system off, the TRAC OFF message will be displayed. If the ETS is limiting wheel spin when you press the button to turn the system off, the TRAC OFF message will be displayed, but the system will not turn off until there is no longer a current need to limit wheel spin. You can turn the system back on at any time by pressing the button again. The TRAC OFF message will no longer be displayed. Adding non-Saturn accessories can affect your vehicle's performance. See Accessories and Modifications on page 270 for more information. Steering Electric Power Steering If the engine stalls while you are driving, the power steering assist system will continue to operate until you are able to stop the vehicle. If you lose power steering assist because the system is not functioning, you can steer but it will take much more effort. If you turn the steering wheel in either direction several times until it stops, or hold the steering wheel in the stopped position for an extended amount of time, you may notice a reduced amount of power steering assist. The normal amount of power steering assist should return shortly after a few normal steering movements. The electric power steering system does not require regular maintenance. If the PWR STR message in the message center is displayed, see your retailer for service. See Power Steering Message on page 184. 227 Limited-Slip Differential Your vehicle may have this feature. A limited-slip transaxle can give you additional traction on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works like a standard transaxle most of the time, but when one of the front wheels loses traction, this feature will allow the wheel with traction to move the vehicle.
