2005 Cadillac STS Owner's Manual - Page 255

You should turn the system off if your vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud or snow and rocking the vehicle is required. See Rocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out on page 4-31 and If You Are Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on page 4-30 for more information. See also Winter Driving on page 4-26 for information on using TCS when driving in snowy or icy conditions. To turn the system off, press the TC (traction control) button located near the shift lever. Magnetic Ride Control Your vehicle may have Magnetic Ride Control that automatically adjusts the ride of your vehicle. Automatic ride control is achieved through a computer used to control and monitor the suspension system. The controller receives input from various sensors to determine the proper system response. If the controller detects a problem within the system, the DIC will display a Service Suspension System message. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-74 for more information. See your dealer for service. Limited-Slip Rear Axle If you press the TC button once, the traction control system will turn off and the traction control system warning light will come on. Press the TC button again to turn the system back on. If you press and hold the TC button for five seconds, the Stabilitrak® system and the traction control system will turn off. Press the TC button again to turn Stabilitrak® back on. For more information, see Stabilitrak® System on page 4-10. Your limited-slip rear axle can give you additional traction on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works like a standard axle most of the time, but when one of the rear wheels has no traction and the other does, this feature will allow the wheel with traction to move the vehicle. 4-9
