ESC Partial Off
When inESC Partial Off mode, the TCS portion of ESC
(except for the limited slip feature described in the TCS
section), has been disabled and the ESC Off Indicator
Light will be illuminated.
This mode is intended to be used if the vehicle is in deep
snow, sand, or gravel conditions and more wheel spin
than ESC would normally allow is required to gain
traction. To turn ESC on again, momentarily push the
ESC OFF switch. This will restore the normal ESC On
mode of operation. NOTE:

with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand, or
gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the ESC Partial

situation requiring ESC to be switched to the ESC Partial
Off mode is overcome, turn ESC back on by momen-
tarily pushing the ESC Full Offswitch. This may be
done while the vehicle is in motion.
The ESC will restore to normal ESC On mode after each
key on.
