102 SAFETY
(Continued)
ESC Operation Modes
To disable ESC and other safety systems, follow
the instruction below.
There are three modes of active safety systems
present on the vehicle:

ESC On

Partial Off

Full Off
ESC On – Two Wheel Drive Vehicles And Four
Wheel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4H Range
This is the normal operating mode for ESC when
operating a two-wheel drive vehicle. It is also
the normal mode for operating a four-wheel
drive vehicle in 2WD or 4H Range. The ESC
system will be in “ESC On” mode whenever the
vehicle is started or the power transfer unit (if
equipped) is shifted out of 4L Range. This mode
should be used for most driving situations. ESC
should only be turned to “Partial Off” or “Full
Off” for specific reasons as noted. Refer to
“Partial Off” and to “Full Off” for additional
information.
NOTE:
It is recommended to select the mode "Partial
Off" or "Full Off" only for specific reasons.
Partial Off – Two Wheel Drive Vehicles And Four
Wheel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4H Range
The “Partial Off” mode is intended for driving in
deep snow, sand, or gravel. This mode raises
the threshold for TCS and ESC activation, which
allows for more wheel spin than what ESC
normally allows.
WARNING!

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
conditions. ESC cannot prevent accidents,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC also cannot
prevent accidents resulting from loss of
vehicle control due to inappropriate driver
input for the conditions. Only a safe, atten -
tive, and skillful driver can prevent acci -
dents. The capabilities of an ESC equipped
vehicle must never be exploited in a reck -
less or dangerous manner which could
jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of
others.

Vehicle modifications, or failure to properly
maintain your vehicle, may change the
handling characteristics of your vehicle,
and may negatively affect the performance
of the ESC system. Changes to the steering
system, suspension, braking system, tire
type and size or wheel size may adversely
affect ESC performance. Improperly
inflated and unevenly worn tires may also
degrade ESC performance. Any vehicle
modification or poor vehicle maintenance
that reduces the effectiveness of the ESC
system can increase the risk of loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death.
