When the transaxle shift lever is in any position other
than FIRST (1) or SECOND (2) and the parking
brake is fully released, this warning light will come on
to let you know if there’s a problem with the system.
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
REVERSE (R), THIRD (3) or OVERDRIVE ( ).
See “Automatic Transaxle” in the Index. If your
vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and
rocking the vehicle is required, 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.
