All-terrain mode (mud, wet grass, ...)
Mode which, when moving off allows
considerable spin on the wheel with
the least grip to optimise clearing of the
mud and regain grip. At the same time,
the wheel with the most grip is control-
led in such a way as to pass as much
torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheel spin to respond to the driver’s re-
quirements as fully as possible. Sand mode
Mode which allows little spin on the two
driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit
the risks of getting stuck in the sand.
Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed princi-
pally to drive on tarmac roads
but it allows you to drive on other less
passable terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-
terrain activities such as:
- crossing and driving on terrain which could damage the under-
frame or strip away components
(fuel pipe, fuel cooler, ...) due to
obstacles or stones in particular,
- driving on terrain with steep gra- dients and poor grip,
- crossing a stream.
Place the dial in this position.
Place the dial in this position. ESP OFF mode
Place the dial in this po-
sition.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
