SELEC-TERRAIN
DRIVING MODE
SELECTION
Turn knob A fig. 95 to select the wished
mode.
IMPORTANT Changing mode is not
possible when the vehicle speed is over
120 km/h.
❒
AUTO (Automatic) : the 4WD mode
with continuous and automatic
operation can be used while driving on
road and off-road. This mode reduces
fuel consumption, because the
propeller shaft can be disconnected,
whenever required.
❒
SNOW : this mode can achieve more
stability on slippery or snow-covered
grounds. To be used for driving on-road
and off-road in the case of grounds
with poor grip, such as roads covered
by snow.
❒
SAND : off-road driving mode to be
used on grounds with poor grip, such
as muddy surfaces. The transmission is
set to offer a maximum traction.
❒
MUD : off-road driving mode for
surfaces with poor grip, such as
mud-covered grounds or wet grass.
❒
ROCK (where provided, for Trailhawk
versions only): this mode is only
available if the 4WD LOW mode is
activated. The device sets the vehicle to
maximise traction and give the highest
steering capacity on off-road surfaces
featuring a high grip. This mode offers
the best performance when driving
"off-road". This mode must be used to
pass over obstacles at slow speed,
such as large rocks, deep cracks, etc.
When the engine is started, the AUTO
mode is automatically selected (LED on
close to the AUTO wording).
Turning the knob A fig. 95 the LED
close to the AUTO wording comes on
solid. The other LEDs switch on
sequentially, depending on the
positions set on the knob, so that the
driver can understand which is the new
required mode.
Once the required mode is set (LED
close to the wording switched on), just
keep the knob in that position so that
the
Selec-Terrain
™
system actuates
to engage the wished mode.
