The traction control system (TCS) (optional)



While driving on slippery roads Traction System (TCS) prevents slippage of the drive wheels, helping the car to pick up speed. This system also provides sufficient traction and control the passage of the car at a speed of rotations.

?�SLIP Control?� (?�Management wheel spin")
It prevents wheel spin on slippery roads during the beginning of the movement or the passage of the vehicle turns at speed to avoid loss of traction on the drive wheels.
The traction control system (TCS) is not acting directly on the brakes. Slow down before you enter a turn.

ATTENTION
When the function is activated the control wheel spin ?�SLIP Control?�, warning lamp flashes traction control (TCS). In this case, release the accelerator pedal and maintain moderate speed.

NOTE
The traction control system is only designed to assist in driving the vehicle; observe all safety precautions when driving in bad weather and roads with a slippery coating.

Mode switching traction control (TCS ON)
In the inclusion of traction control (TCS) warning lamp on the instrument panel is not illuminated.
1. Turn the engine off, and then turn it on again. The TCS switches on automatically.
2. When the control wheel spin is carried out correctly, you can feel the slight vibration of the car. This is a consequence of inhibition of the car and is not dangerous.
3. When starting the engine from under the hood can be heard the clicks, which means that the traction control system produces a self-test.
4. When the vehicle leaves the snowdrifts or dirt, pressing the accelerator pedal may not cause an increase in engine speed.

The warning lights
The warning lamp lights up when the ignition key is turned to position ?�ON?� (?�On.") And ?�START?� (?�starter") and goes out after three seconds.
The indicator lamp failure warning traction control (TCS-OFF) lights up when the system detects a fault (the occurrence of abnormal conditions in the work).
If the warning lamp lit up, stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the engine. After that, restart the engine to check for whether the indicator lamp goes out.

NOTE
When the warning lamp traction control (TCS-OFF), control wheel spin stops automatically for safety reasons.
