Jeep Renegade Latitude 2019, User Manual, Page: 76 / 308

WARNING!
bility offered by the ESC system is re-
duced.
• Trailer Sway control (TSC) is disabled
when the ESC system is in the “Partial
Off” mode.
Full Off – Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 4WD
High And 4WD Low Range
The “Full Off” mode is intended for off-
highway and off-road use when ESC stability
features could inhibit vehicle maneuverabil-
ity due to trail conditions. The “ESC Off”
button is located in the lower switch bank
above the climate control panel. To enter
“Full Off” mode, push and hold the “ESC
Off” button for five seconds while the vehicle
is stopped with the engine running. After five
seconds, the ESC Off indicator light will
illuminate and an “ESC Off” message will
appear in the odometer.
In this mode, ESC and TCS are turned off
(except for the “limited slip” feature de-
scribed in the TCS section) until the vehicle
reaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At
speeds over 40 mph (64 km/h), the system
automatically switches to “Partial Off” mode,
described above. When the vehicle speed
returns to less than 35 mph (56 km/h), the
ESC system will return to “Full Off” mode.
The ESC OFF indicator light is always illumi-
nated when ESC is off. To turn ESC on again,
momentarily push the “ESC Off” button. This
will restore the normal “ESC On” mode of
operation.
NOTE:
With the ESC switched off, the enhanced
vehicle stability offered by ESC is unavail-
able. In an emergency evasive maneuver, the
ESC system will not engage to assist in main-
taining stability. “Full Off” mode is only in-
tended for off-highway or off-road use.
NOTE:
• “Full Off” is the only operating mode for
ESC in 4WD LOW range. The ESC system
will be in this mode whenever the vehicle is
started in 4WD LOW range or the power
transfer unit is shifted into 4WD LOW
range.
• The “ESC OFF” message will display and a
chime will sound when the gear selector is
moved from any position to the PARK posi-
tion and then moved out of the PARK posi-
tion. This will occur even if the message
was cleared previously.
Selec-Terrain — If Equipped
On models equipped with Selec-Terrain, the
activation of some driving modes provide
partial off or full off of some active safety
systems in order to optimize performance in
specific modes.
Partial or full off of the active safety systems
will be indicated by a light in the instrument
cluster.
In "SAND" and "MUD", the active safety sys-
tems are partially disabled and put in place to
ensure maximum performance in the specific
mode of operation. However, you can reacti-
vate them completely at any time by pushing
the ESC button.
NOTE:
In 4WD LOW, the active safety systems are
completely bypassed in order to ensure maxi-
mum off-road performance.
