mizing driveline settings on AWD system. Use

GUIDELINES FOR TRACK USE
If your vehicle is equipped with Drive Modes,
they will alter the vehicle’s performance in
various driving situations. It is recommended
that your vehicle operates in SPORT or
TRACK modes during the track event.
Prior to each track event, verify all fluids are
at the correct levels.
Prior to each track event, verify the front and
rear brake pads have more than half pad
thickness remaining. If the brake pads
require changing, complete a brake burnish
procedure prior to track outing at full pace.
NOTE:
Use of DOT 4 brake fluid is suggested for
extended track usage due to increased thermal
capacity.
