different modes are available:
Normal (ESC)
ESC OFFSnow
This mode allows the vehicle to adapts its strategy to the

conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front
wheels,
  on   moving   off.
When
 
moving,   the   system   optimises  
wheelspin to provide the best
acceleration possible for the grip
available.
Off road
(mud, wet grass, ...)
 When moving off, this mode  allows   considerable  
wheelspin on the wheel
with the least grip to favour
clearing

  of   the   mud   and  
regain

  "grip".
At
 
the
 
same   time,   the   wheel   with   the  
most

 
grip
  is   controlled   in   such   a   way   as  
to

 
transmit   as   much   torque   as   possible.
When
 
moving,   the   system   optimises  
wheelspin

  to   meet   the   driver's  
requirements

  as   fully   as   possible.
Sand
 This mode allows a little wheelspin on the two driving
wheels  at   the   same   time   to  
allow

  the   vehicle   to   move  
forward

  and   reduces   the   risk  
of

  getting   stuck   in   the   sand.
Do
 
not
 
use   the   other   modes   on   sand  
as

 
the
 
vehicle   may   become   stuck.
This
 
mode
 
is
 
calibrated
 
for
 
a
 low
 
level
 
of
 
skidding,
 
based
 
on dif

ferent conditions of grip
encountered
 
on
 
the
 
road.
When the ignition is switched off, the
system
 
returns
 
automatically
 
to
 
DSC
 
mode.
This

 
mode
 
is
 
only
 
suitable
 
for

 
specific
 
conditions
 
encountered

 
when
 
moving
 
off
 
or

 
at
 
low
 
speed.
Above
 
30
 
mph
 
(50
 
km/h)
 
the

 
system
 
returns
 
to
 
DSC
 
mode
 
automatically

.
