Traction Assist System (TAS)
(if equipped; 2WD models only)
TAS operates only when it senses that
one or both rear wheels are beginning to
lose traction. When this happens,
engine power is reduced to limit wheel-
spin. You may also hear or feel the
system working.
TAS is automatically enabled whenever
you start the vehicle.
Disable TAS
• Press the TAS ON/OFF button
located near the shift lever or on the
instrument panel. When disabled, the
TRACTION OFF light comes on.
Enable TAS after having turned it off
• Press the TAS ON/OFF button again
and the TRACTION OFF light will go
out.
