See Traction Control System (TCS) Warning Light on page 206. When this warning light is on, the system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly. The TCS automatically comes on whenever you start your vehicle. To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road conditions, you should always leave the system on. But you can turn the traction control system off if you ever need to. Notice: Do not repeatedly brake or accelerate heavily when the TCS is off. You could damage your vehicle's driveline. When the TCS is switched off on AWD vehicles, you may still feel the system working. This is normal and necessary with the AWD hardware on your vehicle. You should turn the system off if your vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and rocking the vehicle is required. See Rocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out on page 322 and If Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 321 for more information. See also Winter Driving on page 317 for information on using TCS when driving in snowy or icy conditions. To turn the system off, press the TC (traction control) button located on the console under the climate controls. If you press the TC (traction control) button once, the traction control system will turn off and the traction control system warning light will come on. Press the TC button again to turn the system back on. If you press and hold the TC button for five seconds, the StabiliTrak® system and the traction control system will turn off. Press the TC (traction control) button again to turn StabiliTrak® back on. For more information, see StabiliTrak® System on page 283. Adding non-GM accessories can affect your vehicle's performance. See Accessories and Modifications on page 347 for more information. 282
