An activated driving program remains activated even
if the driving conditions change, e.g. if the vehicle is
then driven on the road and/or at a higher speed.
The transmission and chassis control systems then
adapt to suit the changed driving conditions and
speeds.

Tilt indicator
b b Vehicles with Offroad package
The current angular position of the vehicle relative to
the horizontal position can be displayed in the
OFFROAD menu in the PCM and depending on ve-
hicle equipment, also in the head-up display. The
.
angular position is divided into a longitudinal and
transverse tilt angle. The steering angle is also
displayed.
Information
When a certain speed is exceeded, the tilt indicator
display is deactivated and the value (- - -) is
displayed.
Discrepancies in display
CAUTION
The accuracy of the tilt indicator depends on the
current driving situation and may differ from the ac-
tual angular position of the vehicle or there may be a
time delay.
e Always pay attention to the vehicle surroundings.
Lack of attention
WARNING
The vehicle can tip over or slip even at a slight tilt
due to the driving situation and/or road surface.
e Responsibility for assessing the driving situation
and obstacles ultimately lies with the driver.
e Drive with extreme care.
