The Off-Road App displays data such as the
vehicle’s compass bearing, altitude, axle
locker status, pitch/roll angle, and more,
depending on how your vehicle is equipped.
Some gauges track of the maximum values
you have achieved, and you can reset the
values to start over.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road for too
long or too often while using any
infotainment feature can cause a crash.
You or others could be injured or killed.
Do not give extended attention to
infotainment tasks while driving. Limit
your glances at the vehicle displays and
focus your attention on driving. Use voice
