Active
Handling System
The Active Handling System is a computer controlled
system that helps the driver maintain directional control
of
the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. This is
accomplished by selectively applying any one of the
vehicle’s brakes.
When you first start your vehicle and begin to drive away
(6
mph
(10
km/h)), the message ACT HNDLG WARMING
UP may be displayed in the DIC, the instrument cluster
light will be on, and a chime will sound. This is normal.
You can acknowledge this message by pressing the
RESET button. The Active Handling System performance
is affected until the message, WARM UP COMPLETE, is
displayed in the DIC.
The ACT HNDLG WARMING UP message may be
displayed in the DIC after exceeding
12
mph
(20
km/h)
for
30
seconds. The Active Handling System is
off
until the WARM UP COMPLETE message is displayed.
The ACTIVE HANDLING message will come on
when the system is operating. See
DIC
Warnings and
Messages on page
3-53
for more information. You
may also feel or hear the system working. This
is normal.
The SERVICE ACTIVE
HNDLG message will be
displayed, the instrument
cluster light will come
on, and a chime will sound
to let you know
if
there
is a problem with the
system. See
DIC
Warnings
and Messages on
page
3-51
for more
information.
When this light and the SERVICE ACTIVE HNDLG
message are on, the system is not operational. Adjust
your driving accordingly.
