ESC OFF usage
When inspecting
The ESC should be off when
inspecting the vehicle. To turn ESC
off while inspecting, select ESC OFF
from the User Settings Mode (Driving
Assist) on the LCD display. The ESC
OFF indicator light will illuminate and
warning chime will sound. After
inspection, turn the ESC on by
selecting ESC ON from the User

When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be

ation.

attempt to accelerate. NEVER
turn the ESC off while the ESC
indicator light is blinking or you
may lose control of the vehicle

are the same size as your origi-
nal tires for this vehicle.
