COMFORT

When the engine is started, COMFORT
5
drive
mode will be selected and the Start/Stop func-
tion will be activated. This setting offers driving
comfort and light steering.
ECO
ECO drive mode is designed to help promote
fuel-efficient driving.
In this mode, Start/Stop is activated, ground
clearance is lowered to help reduce wind resis-
tance and certain climate system functions will
be reduced.
There is an ECO guage in the instrument panel
to indicate the current level of fuel-efficiency. See
also the article "ECO drive mode."
OFF ROAD
This mode helps maximize the vehicle's capacity
to traverse difficult terrain or poor roads.
In OFF ROAD, ground clearance is maximized,
the steering is light, All Wheel Drive and Hill
Descent Control are activated and a compass
and altimeter will be displayed in the instrument
panel. Start/Stop is deactivated.
This drive mode can only be activated at low
speeds (the permissable speed range will be
shown on the speedometer). At higher speeds,
OFF ROAD mode will be cancelled and another
drive mode will be activated.
This mode is not intended for normal street driv-
ing.
CAUTION
OFF ROAD drive mode may not be used if
the vehicle is towing a trailer without an elec-
trical connection. This could result in damage
to the pneumatic suspension system's bel-
lows.
Due to the increased ground clearance, if the
OFF ROAD mode was selected when the engine
was switched off, it will also restart in this mode.
DYNAMIC
DYNAMIC driving mode is designed to provide
sportier driving characteristics.
Steering response will be more immediate, the
suspension will be stiffer and low ground clear-
ance will help reduce body roll when cornering.
Start/Stop will be deactivated.

If the OFF ROAD mode was selected when the engine was switched off, it will also restart in this mode.
