WARNING!
ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent the
natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle,
nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing
road conditions. ESP cannot prevent accidents, in-
cluding those resulting from excessive speed in
turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro-
planing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can
prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESP-
equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck-
less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the
user's safety or the safety of others.
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 139
The ESP system has 2 available operating modes.
On
This is the normal operating mode for ESP. Whenever the
vehicle is started, the ESP system will be in this "On"
mode. This mode should be used for most driving
situations. ESP should only be turned to "Partial Off"
mode for specific reasons as noted below.
Partial Off
This mode is entered by momentarily depressing the
ESP OFF" switch. When in "Partial Off mode, the TCS
portion of ESP, except for the "limited slip" feature
described in the TCS section, has been disabled and the
ESP/TCS Indicator Light will be illuminated. All other
stability features of ESP 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 ESP
would normally allow is required to gain traction. To
