Note:When off-road mode is on, pressing the stability control off button will change the ABS to an
off-road specific calibration. The ABS off-road mode desensitizes the ABS. The ABS calibration in
off-road mode is optimized for performance on off-road surfaces. This helps on very rough
terrain/adverse driving conditions where the standard ABS calibration may become too active and
hinder the type of driving required in off-road conditions.
