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
.
