Chevrolet 2010 Impala Automobile User Manual


 
When the system is on,
this warning light comes
on and stays on if there is
a problem.
A SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL message also
appears on the DIC. When this warning light is on, the
system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving
accordingly. See DIC Warnings and Messages
on
page 444
for more information.
To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road
conditions, TCS should always be left on. But the
system can be turned off if needed. Turn the system
off if the vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and
rocking the vehicle is required. See Rocking Your
Vehicle to Get It Out
on page 519
and If Your Vehicle
is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow
on page 518
for
more information.
To turn the system on
or off, press the Traction
Control button located on
the instrument panel.
When the system is turned off, the traction control
warning light comes on and TRACTION CONTROL
OFF appears on the DIC. If the traction control system
is limiting wheel spin when the button is pressed to turn
the system off, the warning light comes on and the
system will turn off right away.
Press the Traction Control button again to turn the
system back on. The Traction Control warning light
should go off.
Adding nondealer/nonretailer accessories can affect
the vehicle's performance. See Accessories and
Modifications
on page 63
for more information.
