138 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE: To improve the vehicle's traction when driving
with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand, or
gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the "Partial Off"
mode by pressing the ESP switch. Once the situation
requiring ESP to be switched to the "Partial Off" mode is
overcome, turn ESP back on by momentarily depressing
the "ESP Control Switch". This may be done while the
vehicle is in motion.
Full Off
This mode is intended for off-highway or off-road use
when ESP stability features could inhibit vehicle maneu-
verability 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. In this mode, all ESP and TCS stability features
are turned off except for the "limited slip" feature de-
scribed in the TCS section. After 5 seconds, a chime will
sound, the ESP/TCS Indicator Light will illuminate,
and the ESP OFF message will appear in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to "Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)" in Section 4 of this
manual. (See page 186 for more information.) To turn ESP
on again, momentarily depress the ESP Control Switch .
This will restore the normal "ESP On" mode of operation.
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 position
other than "P" (Park), and then moved out of the "P"
(Park) position. This will occur even if the message was
previously cleared.
