Full On
This is the normal operating mode for ESP. Whenever the
vehicle is started the system will be in this mode. This
mode should be used for most driving situations. ESP
should only be turned to “Partial Off” for specific reasons
as noted. Refer to “Partial Off” for additional informa-
tion.
Partial Off
The ESP OFF button is located in the switch bank above
the climate Control. To enter the “Partial Off” mode,
momentarily depress the ESP OFF button and the ESP/
TCS Indicator Light will illuminate. To turn the ESP on
again, momentarily depress the ESP OFF button and the
ESP/TCS Indicator Light will turn off. This will restore
the normal “ESP On” mode of operation.
NOTE: To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving
with snow chains, or when starting off in deep snow,
sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the
“Partial Off” mode by momentarily depressing the ESP
OFF button. Once the situation requiring “Partial Off”
mode is overcome, turn ESP back on by momentarily
depressing the ESP OFF button. This may be done while
the vehicle is in motion.
