Competitive Driving Mode
The driver can select this optional handling mode by
pressing the ACTIVE HANDLING button on the console
for more than five seconds. A chime will sound and
COMPETITIVE DRIVING will be displayed in the DIC.
Competitive Driving mode allows the driver to have
full control of the rear wheels while the Active Handling
System helps steer the vehicle by selective brake
application. The instrument cluster light will not be on.
The Traction Control System will not be operating.
Adjust your driving accordingly.
When you press the ACTIVE HANDLING button again,
or turn the ignition to ACC, the Active Handling and
Traction Control Systems will be on. The TRAC/ACT
HNDLG-ON message will be displayed temporarily in the
DIC and a chime will be heard.
Limited-Slip Rear Axle
Your limited-slip rear axle can give you additional traction
on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works like a
standard axle most of the time, but when one of the rear
wheels has no traction and the other does, this feature
will allow the wheel with traction to move the vehicle.
Selective Ride Control
You may have a ride control system on your vehicle
called Selective Ride Control. The system provides the
following performance benefits:
•
Reduced Impact Harshness
•
Improved Road Isolation
•
Improved High-Speed Stability
•
Improved Handling Response
•
Better Control of Body Ride Motions
