(Continued)
NOTE:
For vehicles with multiple partial ESC modes
a momentary button push will toggle the ESC
mode. Multiple momentary button pushes
may be required to return to ESC On.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when
the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.
If Equipped — "ESC Sport" and "ESC Track"
are ESC “Partial Off” mode(s).
Partial Off
The “Partial Off” mode is intended for times
when a more spirited driving experience is
desired. This mode may modify TCS and ESC
thresholds for activation, which allows for more
wheel spin than normally allowed. This mode
may be useful if the vehicle becomes stuck.
"Traction Sport" and "Traction Track" (if
equipped) are ESC “Partial Off” mode(s). Upon
the first push of the ESC button the system goes
into SPORT mode, indication comes on in the
cluster (a picture of the vehicle with the word
SPORT), and the light in the cluster is illumi-
nated. The second push of the ESC button the
system will go into TRACK mode, indication
comes on in the cluster (a picture of the vehicle
with the word TRACK), and the light in the
cluster remains illuminated. When it is pushed
a third time the ESC will go back into ESC On, no
indication, and the illumination in the cluster
turns off.
NOTE:
For vehicles with multiple partial ESC modes
a momentary button push will toggle the ESC
mode. Multiple momentary button pushes
may be required to return to ESC On.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when
the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.
If Equipped — "ESC Sport" and "ESC Track"
are ESC “Partial Off” mode(s).
Full Off – If Equipped
This mode is intended for off-highway or
off-road use only and should not be used on any
public roadways. In this mode, TCS and ESC
features are turned off. To enter the “Full Off”
mode, push and hold the “ESC OFF” switch for
five seconds while the vehicle is stopped with
the engine running. After five seconds, a chime
will sound, the “ESC OFF Indicator Light” will illu-
minate, and the “ESC OFF” message will display
in the instrument cluster. To turn ESC on again,
momentarily push the “ESC OFF” switch.
WARNING!
When in “Partial Off Traction Sport” mode,
the TCS functionality of ESC, (except for the
limited slip feature described in the TCS
section), has been disabled and the “ESC Off
Indicator Light” will be illuminated. When in
“Partial Off Traction Track” mode, the TCS
functionality of ESC, is enabled and the “ESC
Off Indicator Light” will be illuminated. When
in “Partial Off” mode, the enhanced vehicle
stability offered by the ESC system is
reduced.
WARNING!
In the ESC “Full Off” mode, the engine
torque reduction and stability features are
disabled. Therefore, enhanced vehicle
stability offered by the ESC system is
unavailable. In an emergency evasive
maneuver, the ESC system will not engage
to assist in maintaining stability. ESC “Full
Off” mode is intended for off-highway or
off-road use only.
