WHAT IS DRIVE MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has various drive modes that
you can select for different driving
conditions. Depending on the drive mode
that you select, the system adjusts various
vehicle settings.
HOW DOES DRIVE MODE
CONTROL WORK
Drive mode control adjusts your vehicle
configuration for each mode you select.
Changing the drive mode changes the
functionality of the steering system to
adjust the steering effort and feel.
The stability and traction control assist
your vehicle control in adverse conditions
or high-performance driving.
Throttle control enhances the powertrain
response, transmission controls become
optimized with shift schedules, and
four-wheel drive settings are optimized
and tuned to each mode.
Changing the drive mode engages or
disengages the electronic locking
differential.
Changing the drive mode changes the
four-wheel drive modes to be the default,
available or not available.
Note: The system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system for
proper operation. If a mode is unavailable
due to a system fault, the mode defaults to
normal.
Note: The system reverts to the normal
mode each time you start your vehicle. At
startup the system also displays a prompt
on the instrument cluster display that gives
you the option to return to the previously
selected drive mode during the last ignition
cycle. If you select yes, the system returns
to the last selected drive mode and the
driveline setting associated with that mode.
If you select no, the system remains in
normal mode and the driveline setting
associated with that mode. If you do not
select yes or no, the system stays in normal
mode and the driveline stays in the last used
setting.
