Driving

Only for 4Drive models.
In vehicles with 4-wheel drive, the TCS is dis-
connect
ed completely . In addition, the control
lamp
lights up on the instrument cluster.
ESC in “Or
oad” mode
2)
Turn the (Driving Experience button) to se-
lect the Oroad profile to be switched on
›››page172. The interventions of the TCS, as
well as of the EDS and the ABS system adapt to
irregular terrain.
In the following exceptional situations it may
make sense to activate the Oroad mode to
allow the wheels to spin:
●
When “swinging” the vehicle to get it unstuck.
●
Driving in deep snow or on loose surfaces.
●
When driving on rough terrain with much of
the car
's weight is lifted o the wheels (axle
articulation).
●
Steep descents with braking on unpaved ter-
rain.
For your safety we recommend that you turn
o the Oroad mode when it is not absolutely
necessary.
To disconnect the Oroad mode, select a dif-
ferent driving mode.
ESC in “Snow” mode
2)
Use the rotary (Driving Experience button) to
select the Snow profile to be switched on
›››page172. Traction control system (TCS)
interventions adjust to the adhesion of snowy
roads.
To disconnect the Snow mode, select a dier-
ent driving mode.
WARNING
The ESC Sport mode should be activated
only when tr
ac conditions and the ability
of the driver allow it. Danger of skidding!
●
With ESC in Sport mode, the stabilising
function will be limited to allow for a sportier
drive. The vehicle may skid.
WARNING
You should only activate the Or
oad Mode
or disable the TCS if the experience of the
driver and trac conditions allow it. Danger
of skidding!
●
With the Oroad mode activated, the sta-
bilisation function is limited. In particular, if
the road is too smooth and slippery, the driv-
ing wheels could spin and the vehicle could
skid.
Note
If the TCS is disconnected or “Sport” mode
is sel
ected, the cruise control system will be
switched o.
