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.
ESC OFF Switch
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 "ESC OFF" switch. Once the
situation requiring ESC to be switched to the "Partial
Off" mode is overcome, turn ESC back on by momen-
tarily pressing the "ESC OFF" switch. This may be done
while the vehicle is in motion.
4WD Low Range
Partial Off
This is the normal operating mode for ESC in 4WD LOW
range. Whenever the vehicle is started in 4WD LOW
range, or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from
4WD HIGH range or NEUTRAL to 4WD LOW range, the
ESC system will be in the "Partial Off" mode.
