X-MODE®
X-MODE is the integrated control system of the
engine, All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system and Vehicle
Dynamics Control (VDC) systems. It helps to maximize
traction in slippery conditions such as mud or snow. In
certain situations, such as deep mud or snow, it may
help to turn VDC off to allow for more wheel spin.
X-MODE functions with the select lever in the “D” or
“R” position.
Press the X-MODE button with the vehicle speed less
than 12 mph to activate the system. When active, the
Multi-Function Display (MFD) shows the steering direction, vehicle angle and power
distribution. If the vehicle speed reaches 25 mph while X-MODE is active, the system is
cancelled and you will need to activate it again once you reach a lower speed.
Hill Descent Control (HDC)
This function helps maintain a constant vehicle speed when driving down steep hills or
declines. HDC is automatically engaged with X-MODE and functions with the select lever
in the “D” or “R” position.
