The traction control system integrated into the Smart 451 is very important as it ensures better grip and control while driving. For this reason, it should only be disabled in case of necessity or malfunction.

Here's how to do it. The required procedure is very simple and takes just a few seconds. First, start with the car completely off and the doors closed.

Locate the two buttons on the instrument panel and press them simultaneously. Insert the key and turn on the ignition.

As soon as the TC light starts to flash, release the two buttons and you're done.
