Dodge 2015 Charger SRT 392 Operating Instructions Manual page 226

• To improve the vehicle's traction when
driving with snow chains, or when start-
ing off in deep snow, sand, or gravel, it
may be desirable to switch to the "Sport
Mode" by momentarily pushing the "ESC
Off" switch. Once the situation requiring
"Sport Mode" is overcome, turn the ESC
ON again by momentarily pushing the
"ESC Off" switch. This may be done while
the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING!
When in "Sport/Track" mode, the TCS por-
tion of ESC, except for the limited wheel spin
feature described in the TCS section, has
been disabled and the "ESC Off Indicator
Light" will be illuminated. When in "Sport/
Track" mode, the enhanced vehicle stability
offered by the ESC system is reduced.
Full Off
This mode is intended for off-highway or off-
road use only and should not be used on any
public roadways. In this mode, all TCS and ESC
stability features are turned OFF. To enter the
"Full Off" mode, push and hold the "ESC Off"
switch for five seconds while the vehicle is
stopped with the engine running. After five
seconds, a chime will sound, the "ESC OFF
Indicator Light" will illuminate, and the "ESC off"
message will appear in the Driver Information
Display (DID). Refer to "Driver Information Dis-
play (DID)" in "Understanding Your Instrument
Panel" for further information. To turn ESC ON
again, momentarily push the "ESC Off" switch.
NOTE:
The ESC off message will display and the
audible chime will sound when the shift
lever is moved into the PARK position from
any position other than PARK and then
moved out of the PARK position. This will
occur when the message was previously
cleared.
WARNING!
In the ESC "Full Off" mode, the engine
torque reduction and stability features are
WARNING! (Continued)
disabled. Therefore, the enhanced vehicle
stability offered by ESC is unavailable. In an
emergency evasive maneuver, the ESC sys-
tem will not engage to assist in maintaining
stability. "ESC Off" mode is intended for
off-highway or off-road use only.
NOTE:
When the ESC is switched SPORT, the BLD
system remains active. This feature controls
wheel spin across an axle quite similarly to a
limited slip differential. If one wheel on an
axle is spinning faster than the other, the
system will apply the brake of the spinning
wheel and allow more engine torque to be
applied to the wheel that is not spinning. To
improve the vehicle's traction when driving
with tire chains, or when starting off in deep
snow, sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to
switch to the "Sport Mode" by momentarily
pushing the "ESC Off" switch.
