The Traction  Control  System (TCS)
helps the  vehicle accelerate on  slip-
pery road surfaces by preventing the
drive  wheels  from  spinning  exces-
sively. It also provides improved driv-
ing force and steering.
When moving  out  of mud
or  driving   on  a   slippery
road,  pressing  the  accel-
erator    pedal    may    not
cause   the    engine   rpm
(revolutions per minute) to
increase.
