Switching off driving stability control
Press the "TC OFF" logo of the rocker switch. Driving stability control cannot be switched off during a TC control process (information light on). Press the switch for at least 0.1 second. Then a further 0.3 second will pass until the routine is complete. Only then is driving stability control switched off or on.
One-sided wheel spin on the drive axle is further prevented by brake control up to a speed of 100 km/h.
Driving stability is not monitored, since the rive wheels can spin at the same rpm (slip).
With driving stability control switched off, the TC MIL in the instrument panel and the indicator light in the rocker switch are lit.
It can be advantageous to switch off driving stability control:
- on a loose surface and in deep snow
- when "rocking" the vehicle free
- when using snow chains.
