BMW X3 Owners Manual: The concept
The DTC system is a version of the DSC where forward momentum is optimized.
The system ensures maximum headway on special road conditions or loose road surfaces, e.g., unplowed snowy roads, but with somewhat limited driving stability.
Activating the Dynamic Traction Control DTC provides maximum traction. Driving stability is limited during acceleration and when driving in curves.
Therefore drive with appropriate caution.
You may find it useful to briefly activate DTC under the following special circumstances:
- When driving in slush or on uncleared, snow-covered roads.
- When freeing vehicle from deep snow or driving off from loose grounds.
- When driving with snow chains.
