Rain Mode
Rain mode offers increased traction control and stability control for low traction conditions
such as wet roads, dry roads during cold temperatures, or when the driver wants enhanced
stability due to lack of familiarity or experience with the vehicle's response. To enter the
"Rain Mode" mode, push the "ESC" switch three times. The "ESC RAIN" light will
illuminate, and the "ESC RAIN" message will display in the vehicle cluster (left of the
odometer).
NOTE:
Some models may not offer "Sport" or "Track" Mode.
The Electronic Stability Control System (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 all 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 inappropri-
ate driver input for the conditions. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of an ESC equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a
reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of
others.

For optimal fuel economy, under low acceleration conditions, your vehicle will only allow
you to shift from first gear to fourth gear. Additionally, the skip shift message will appear
in the tachometer.
WARNING!
Skip Shift is enabled when vehicle speed is greater than 16 mph
(26 km/h) but less than 18 mph (29 km/h) and the accelerator is at
20% or less.
