The following ESC operating modes are available:
Sport: Provides reduced stability control.
Street: Provides full (default) stability control.
Full: Provides traction control and stability
control optimized for slippery conditions.
Baja: Optimizes the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS), traction control, and stability control for
high-speed off-road driving.
Rock: Optimizes traction control for low-speed
off-road driving/crawling.
NOTE:
Not all ESC operating modes are selectable in the
setup menu. Some ESC settings are preconfigured
by the selected drive mode and may not be

SAFETY TIPS

LUID
L
EAKS
Check area under the vehicle after overnight
parking for fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks.
Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if fuel or
brake fluid leaks are suspected, the cause should
be located and corrected immediately.
WARNING!
When in “Partial Off” mode, the TCS function
-
ality of ESC (except for the limited slip feature
described in the TCS section) has been
disabled and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will
be illuminated. When in “Partial Off” mode,
the engine power reduction feature of TCS is
disabled, and the enhanced vehicle stability
offered by the ESC system is reduced.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when
the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.
WARNING!
In the ESC “Full Off” mode, the engine torque
reduction and stability features are disabled.
Therefore, enhanced vehicle stability offered
by the ESC system is unavailable. In an emer
-
gency evasive maneuver, the ESC system will
not engage to assist in maintaining stability.
ESC “Full Off” mode is intended for
off-highway or off-road use only.
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the
traction afforded by prevailing road condi
-
tions. ESC cannot prevent all accidents,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC also cannot
prevent collisions.
