368 STARTING AND OPERATING
Active Damping System
This vehicle is equipped with an electronic controlled
damping system. This system reduces body roll and pitch
in many driving situations including cornering, accelera-
tion and braking. There are 3 modes:
• Touring Mode (Available in terrain positions AUTO
and SNOW) — Used during highway speeds where a
touring suspension feel is desired.
• Firm Mode (Available in terrain positions SPORT and
TOW) — Provides a firm suspension for better
handling.
• Full Firm (Available in TRACK mode) — Provides a
full firm suspension for an aggressive track experience.
Launch Mode – If Equipped
This system maximizes acceleration traction for straight
line racing.
1. Bring vehicle to complete stop on a level track surface
with the engine running.
2. Set the steering wheel for straight ahead driving.
3. Fully press the brake pedal.
4. Press and release the "LAUNCH" Button.
5. Press the accelerator pedal to the floor.
NOTE: If the cluster launch EVIC message indicates all
conditions are correct for launch and the throttle is
pressed to the floor quickly (within approximately
1/2 second) the system will hold the engine speed to a
preset speed (below the engine rev limiter speed).
6. Release the brake pedal.
