See “Enhanced Traction System Warning Light” in the
Index. When this warning light is on, the system will not
limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
The Enhanced Traction System can operate when
the transaxle shift lever is in any position other than
FIRST
(1)
or
SECOND
(2).
To limit wheel spin,
especially
in
slippery road conditions, you should use
the other shift lever positions only when necessary. See
“Automatic Transaxle” in the Index.
(If
your vehicle
ever
gets stuck in sand, mud, ice or snow, see “Rocking
Your Vehicle” in the Index.)
When you move the shift lever to FIRST
(1)
or
SECOND
(2),
the system will turn
off.
The Enhanced
Traction System warning light will come on and stay on.
If
the Enhanced Traction System is limiting wheel spin
when you move the shift lever to another position, the
system won’t turn off right away.
It
will wait until
there’s no longer
a
current need to limit wheel spin.
You can turn the system back on at any time by moving
the shift lever to any position other than FIRST
(1)
or
SECOND
(2).
The Enhanced Traction System warning
light should
go
off.
Braking in Emergencies
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.
Steering
Power Steering
If
you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or the system is not functioning, you
can
steer but
it will take much more effort.
Steering Tips
Driving on
Curves
It’s important to take curves at a reasonable speed.
A
lot
of
the “driver lost control” accidents mentioned on
the news happen on curves. Here’s why:
Experienced driver or beginner, each of
us
is subject to
the same laws of physics when driving on curves. The
traction of the tires against the road surface makes it
possible for the vehicle to change its path when you turn
the front wheels.
If
there’s no traction, inertia will keep
the vehicle going in the same direction. If you’ve ever
tried to steer a vehicle on wet ice, you’ll understand this.
