Make sure the following warnings have been read and fully understood before driving the vehicle. Failure to follow the guidelines could result in vehicle damage, serious injury, or death.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) does not compensate for driver error or misjudgment. The vehicle should be driven with due care and attention at all times. Always drive in a manner that is safe for the vehicle, its occupants, and other road users. Failure to do so can potentially result in a loss of control of the vehicle.
The vehicle may initially have reduced stability and braking performance in extremely low temperatures. In these conditions, drive with extra caution.
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before driving the vehicle. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) SAFETY.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) helps maintain the vehicle’s stability in critical driving situations, e.g., during unstable driving conditions such as understeer and oversteer. If required, DSC controls the engine’s power output and applies the brakes at individual wheels.
Noise from the braking system may be heard during DSC operation.
DSC may also activate if wheel spin is detected, to help improve the vehicle’s acceleration performance.
DSC automatically enables when the vehicle’s ignition is switched on. To switch DSC off, touch the DSC OFF icon. See SWITCHING DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) OFF.
DCS works in conjunction with the terrain response system. When operational, the terrain response system automatically adjusts DSC to suit the current driving program selection. See TERRAIN RESPONSE OPERATION.
The amber DSC lamp flashes in the instrument panel when DSC is active. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) (AMBER).
The amber DSC lamp illuminates permanently if the system develops a fault. Consult a retailer/authorized repairer if the fault persists.
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before driving the vehicle. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) SAFETY.
The vehicle’s stability and safety may be reduced by inappropriately switching Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) off. Switching DSC off could result in a loss of control of the vehicle, potentially leading to serious injury or death.
DSC cannot be switched off on 2 Wheel Drive (2WD) vehicles.
Touch and hold the DSC OFF icon for approximately 3 seconds to switch DSC off. The DSC OFF icon is located on the dashboard. See DRIVER CONTROLS.
A tone sounds and the DSC OFF amber warning lamp illuminates. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) OFF (AMBER).
Switching DSC off reduces the level of traction and stability control intervention. An increase in wheel spin and a reduction in the vehicle’s stability may be experienced.
In the majority of driving situations, and particularly on-road, it is recommended that DSC is not switched off.
DSC cannot be switched off if the comfort, ECO or AUTO terrain response driving programs are selected. See TERRAIN RESPONSE OVERVIEW.
DSC cannot be switched off if a driver assistance feature is active.
Make sure DSC is switched back on at the earliest opportunity. See SWITCHING DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) ON.
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before driving the vehicle. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) SAFETY.
Touch and briefly hold the DSC OFF icon to switch DSC on. See DRIVER CONTROLS.
The DSC OFF warning lamp extinguishes to confirm DSC has been switched on. See DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC) OFF (AMBER).
DSC automatically enables when the vehicle’s ignition is switched on.
