Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control
The Traction Control System (TCS) limits wheel spin. The system turns on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
The StabiliTrak system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. The system also turns on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
See Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control on page 9-28.
This vehicle also has a Brake Pedal Override feature that limits engine torque when the brake pedal is applied. See Traction Control/ Electronic Stability Control on page 9-28.
Tire Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tire
pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tires. If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits on page 9-10.
The warning light will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This may be an early indicator that the tire pressures are getting low and the tires need to be inflated to the proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal monthly tire maintenance. Maintain the correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System on page 10-46.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and displays a CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message when it is time to change the engine oil and filter.
Resetting the Oil Life System
Reset the system whenever the engine oil is changed so that the system can calculate the next engine oil change. To reset the system:
Be careful not to reset the oil life display accidentally at any time other than after the oil is changed. It cannot be reset accurately until the next oil change.
The oil life system can also be reset as follows:
If the OIL LIFE REMAINING value is not 100%, the system needs to be reset again.
See Engine Oil Life System on page 10-10.
