situations. See the Switching Off AdvanceTrac with RSC section
following.
Switching Off AdvanceTrac with RSC
If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose engine
power, switching off certain features of the AdvanceTrac with RSC
system may be beneficial because the wheels are allowed to spin. This
will restore full engine power and will enhance momentum through the
obstacle. To switch off the AdvanceTrac with RSC system press the
AdvanceTrac with RSCЉOffЉ button. Full features of the AdvanceTrac
with RSC system can be restored by pressing the AdvanceTrac with
RSCЉOffЉ button again or by turning off and restarting the engine.
If you switch off the AdvanceTrac with RSC system, the sliding carЉ
icon
will illuminate steadily. Pressing the AdvanceTrac with RSC
ЉOffЉ button again will turn off the Љsliding carЉ icon
.
In R (Reverse), ABS and the Engine and Brake Traction Control features
will continue to function; however, ESC and RSC are disabled.

Trailer Sway Control
When properly equipped, trailer sway control will use the vehicle’s
AdvanceTrac with RSC system to detect and help reduce trailer sway
by applying brake force at individual wheels and, if necessary, by
reducing engine power. Trailer sway control is only enabled above
40 mph (64 km/h).
