Traction Control System (TCS) Description

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS) DESCRIPTION (IF EQUIPPED)
The main purpose of traction control is to reduce wheel slip and maintain traction at the driven wheels when road surfaces are slippery. The traction control system reduces wheel slip by braking the wheel that is losing traction. The system is designed to operate at speeds below 56 km/h (35 mph).
