lights up.
2. Engage selector lever position S.
3. With the left foot, forcefully press down on
the brake.
4. Press and hold down the accelerator pedal
beyond the resistance point at the full
throttle position.
A flag symbol is displayed in the instrument
cluster.
5. The starting engine speed adjusts. Within
3 seconds, release the brake.
Before using Launch Control, allow the transmission
to cool down for approx. 5 minutes.
Launch Control adjusts to the surrounding
conditions, e.g., wet pavement, when used
again.
This! One thing to add, as i was doing all this and it still didnt work. Hold the brake pedal alllllllllll the way down. Very important. I pressed the brake pedal, i thought was forcefully, but it wasnt. You must really press the brake pedal down hard. Good luck.
