Driving on Snow or Ice
Most of the time, those places where the tires meet the
road probably have good traction.
However, if there is snow or ice between the tires
and the road, you can have a very slippery situation.
You have a lot less traction, or grip, and need to be
very careful.
What is the worst time for this? Wet ice. Very cold
snow or ice can be slick and hard to drive on. But
wet ice can be even more trouble because it can offer
the least traction of all. You can get wet ice when it
is about freezing, 32°F (0°C), and freezing rain begins
to fall. Try to avoid driving on wet ice until salt and sand
crews can get there.
Whatever the condition — smooth ice, packed, blowing,
or loose snow — drive with caution.
StabiliTrak
®
improves your ability to accelerate when
driving on a slippery road. Even with StabiliTrak
®
, slow
down and adjust your driving to the road conditions.
Under certain conditions, you might want to turn the
traction control part of the StabiliTrak
®
System off, such
as when driving through deep snow and loose gravel,
to help maintain vehicle motion at lower speeds. See
StabiliTrak
®
System on page 4-5 and If Your Vehicle
is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 4-19.
