DSC OFF Switch

Press the DSC OFF switch to turn off the
TCS/DSC. The DSC OFF indicator light
in the instrument cluster will illuminate.

Press the switch again to turn the
TCS/DSC back on. The DSC OFF
indicator light will turn off.

NOTE

•

When DSC is on and you attempt to free
the vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it
out of freshly fallen snow, the TCS (part
of the DSC system) will activate.
Depressing the accelerator will not
increase engine power and freeing the
vehicle may be difficult. When this
happens, turn off the TCS/DSC.

•

If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine is
turned off, it automatically activates
when the ignition is switched ON.

•

Leaving the TCS/DSC on will provide
the best traction.

•

If the DSC OFF switch is pressed and
held for 10 seconds or more, the DSC
OFF switch malfunction detection
function operates and the DSC system
activates automatically. The DSC OFF
indicator light turns off while the DSC
system is operative.

•

(Vehicles with Advanced Smart City
Brake Support (Advanced SCBS))

If the Advanced Smart City Brake
Support (Advanced SCBS) operates with
the TCS/DSC turned off, the TCS/DSC
becomes operational automatically.
