The ASR system 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 ASR system off if you
ever need to. (You should turn the system
off
if your
vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud, ice or snow. See
“Rocking Your Vehicle” in the Index.)
To
turn the system off, press the button located above
the headlight switch. The ASR
OFF
light will come on
and stay
on.
If
the ASR system is limiting wheel spin
when you press the button, the system will turn
off
right
away if you have an
LT1
engine. If
you
have an LT5
engine, however, 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 pressing
the button again. The ASR
OFF
light should
go
off.
Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to.
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.
