WARNING! (Continued)
enhanced vehicle stability offered by the ESC sys-
tem is reduced.
• Trailer Sway control (TSC) is disabled when the
ESC system is in the "Partial Off" mode.
Full Off – Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 4WD High
And 4WD Low Range
The "Full Off" mode is intended for off-highway and
off-road use when ESC stability features could inhibit
vehicle maneuverability due to trail conditions. The "ESC
Off" button is located in the lower switch bank above the
climate control panel. To enter "Full Off" mode, press
and hold the "ESC Off" button for five seconds while the
vehicle is stopped with the engine running. After five
seconds, the ESC Off indicator light will illuminate and
an "ESC Off" message will appear in the odometer.
In this mode, ESC and TCS are turned off (except for the
"limited slip" feature described in the TCS section) until
the vehicle reaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At
speeds over 40 mph (64 km/h), the system automatically
switches to "Partial Off" mode, described above. When
the vehicle speed returns to less than 35 mph (56 km/h),
the ESC system will return to "Full Off" mode. The ESC
OFF indicator light is always illuminated when ESC is
off. To turn ESC on again, momentarily press the "ESC
Off" button. This will restore the normal "ESC On" mode
of operation.
NOTE: With the ESC switched off, the enhanced vehicle
stability offered by ESC is unavailable. In an emergency
evasive maneuver, the ESC system will not engage to
assist in maintaining stability. "Full Off" mode is only
intended for off-highway or off-road use.
