control function has been activat-
ed. It also means that the road is
slippery or your car is accelerating
excessively. In this situation, gen-
tly release foot pressure from the
accelerator pedal and maintain
moderate speed.
The safety features of an ABS
equipped vehicle should not be
tested by high speed driving or
cornering. This could endanger the
safety of yourself or others.
C300A01JM
On slippery road surfaces, the traction
control system (TCS) limits the drive
wheelsfromspinningexcessively,thus
helping the car to accelerate. It also
provides sufficient driving force and
steering performance as the car turns
at accelerated speeds.
!
WARNING:
Traction control is a driving aid; all
normal precautions for driving in
inclement weather and on slippery
driving surfaces should be ob-
served.
SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning
excessively during starting or while
making accelerated turns on slippery
roads to avoid losing the driving force
of the front wheels.
