Switching ESC SPORT on or off
G
Warning!
ESC SPORT should not be switched on during
normal driving.
Switching ESC SPORT on will result in the
following:
R
no restriction to engine torque
R
system-supported traction control is
limited
ESC SPORT is designed for driving on closed
tracks when the vehicle’s natural oversteer
and understeer characteristics are desired
and requires a highly skilled and experienced
driver able to handle these critical driving
situations.
You could lose control of your vehicle and
cause an accident.
Please be aware of these limits when you
switch on ESC SPORT.
Do not switch on ESC SPORT when a spare
wheel is mounted.
To improve the vehicle’s traction, switch on
ESC SPORT. This allows the drive wheels to
spin and thus cut into surfaces for better grip,
for example
R
when driving with snow chains
R
in deep snow
R
in sand or gravel
G
Warning!
Switch off ESC SPORT and switch on the ESC
immediately if the aforementioned
circumstances do not apply anymore.
Otherwise ESC will only stabilize the vehicle
to a limited extent when it is starting to skid
or a wheel is spinning.
