402 STARTING AND OPERATING
WARNING! (Continued)
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent collisions.
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.
The ESC system has two available operating modes in
4WD HIGH range and two-wheel drive vehicles, and one
operating mode in 4WD LOW range.
High Range (Four-Wheel Drive Models) Or
Two-Wheel Drive Models
On
This is the normal operating mode for ESC in 4WD HIGH
range and in two-wheel drive vehicles. Whenever the
vehicle is started or the transfer case (if equipped) is
shifted from 4WD LOW range or NEUTRAL back to
4WD HIGH range, the ESC system will be in this "On"
mode. This mode should be used for most driving
situations. ESC should only be turned to "Partial Off"
mode for specific reasons as noted below.
Partial Off
This mode is entered by momentarily pressing the "ESC
OFF" switch. When in "Partial Off" mode, the TCS
portion of ESC, except for the BLD feature described in
the TCS section, has been disabled and the "ESC Off
Indicator Light" will be illuminated. All other stability
features of ESC function normally. This mode is intended
to be used if the vehicle is in deep snow, sand, or gravel
conditions and more wheel spin than ESC would nor-
mally allow is required to gain traction. To turn ESC on
again, momentarily press the "ESC OFF" switch. This
will restore the normal "ESC On" mode of operation.
