snow chains JEEP WRANGLER 2017 Owners Manual

ESC Partial Off
This mode is entered by momentarily pushing the ESC
OFF switch. When inESC Partial Offmode, 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: To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving
with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand, or
gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the ESC Partial Off
mode by pushing the ESC OFF switch. Once the situation
requiring ESC to be switched to the ESC Partial Offmode
is overcome, turn ESC back on by momentarily pushing the
ESC OFF switch. This may be done while the vehicle is in
motion.
