the "ESP Control Switch". This may be done while the
vehicle is in motion.
WARNING!
In the Partial Off mode, the engine torque reduction
and stability features are desensitized. Therefore, the
enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP is
unavailable.
All 4WD vehicles in Auto and 4HI Modes can also

This mode is intended for off-road use when ESP stability
features could inhibit vehicle maneuverability due to trail
conditions. This mode is entered by depressing and
holding the "ESP Control Switch" for 5 seconds when the
vehicle is stopped and the engine is running. After 5
seconds, the "ESP/TCS Indicator Light" will illuminate
and the "ESP Off" message will appear in the odometer.
Press and release the trip odometer button located on the
instrument cluster to clear this message.
NOTE: The "ESP OFF" message will display and the
audible chime will sound when the gear selector is
placed into the "P" (Park) position from any other
position, and then moved out of the "P" (Park) position.
This will occur even if the message was previously
cleared.
In this mode, ESP and TCS, except for the "limited Slip"
feature described in the TCS section, are turned off until
the vehicle reaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At 40
mph (64 km/h) the system returns to "Partial Off" mode,
described above. When the vehicle speed drops below 35
