Driving safely
Different modes
 
are
 
available:
Normal (ESC)
ESC OFF Snow
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 of

f
or
 
at
 
low
 
speed.
Above
 
30
 
mph
 
(50
 
km/h)
 
the system returns to DSC mode
automatically

.
