LOW TRACTION LAUNCH

The low traction launch feature helps to further enhance low speed maneuvering and pulling away from a standstill, in adverse conditions.

Operation of the low traction launch feature is further enhanced if the grass gravel snow driving program is enabled. See GRASS GRAVEL SNOW.

The low traction launch feature also operates if either the automatic (AUTO) driving program or the comfort driving program is selected. See COMFORT and TERRAIN RESPONSE OPERATION.

Select Low Traction Launch from the 4x4i extra feature on the touchscreen. Follow the on-screen instructions to meet the required vehicle conditions. Touch the Activate soft key to enable the low traction launch feature. See EXTRA FEATURES.

Alternatively, the touchscreen displays a low traction launch pop-up menu, if the following conditions are met and the grass gravel snow driving program is selected:

  • The vehicle is stationary.
  • The accelerator pedal is not pressed.
  • The All Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) system has not entered full function mode if ATPC is currently enabled. See USING ALL TERRAIN PROGRESS CONTROL (ATPC).

In this event, select the required Yes or No soft key from the pop-up menu. Alternatively, touch the Do not show again soft key to disable the pop-up menu. The pop-up menu is also enabled and disabled via the 4x4i settings. See SYSTEM SETTINGS.

The low traction launch feature only operates at vehicle speeds below 19 mph (30 km/h).

Low-speed maneuvers, and pulling away from a standstill, are complete when the vehicle’s speed reaches 19 mph (30 km/h). The low traction launch feature automatically disables.

The low traction launch feature also disables if:

  • The ATPC system enters full function mode.
  • The dynamic, mud ruts, rock crawl, or sand driving program is selected.
  • The accelerator pedal is pressed to its full travel (kick down).
  • A low traction launch system fault is detected. In this event, the instrument panel and the touchscreen display a warning message.

DRIVE ASSIST

Drive assist is a surround camera feature that assists the driver with forwarding vehicle guidance while driving off-road. The drive assists feature displays the area directly ahead of the vehicle that may not be visible to the driver.

Select Drive Assist from the 4x4i extra feature. See EXTRA FEATURES.

The drive assist feature may not operate correctly in certain conditions, for example:

  • If the vehicle is being driven on top of a hill.
  • If the system is operating in low ambient light levels.
  • If the vehicle’s cameras are dirty or obscured.

The drive assist feature disables if Reverse (R) is engaged. The touchscreen displays a rear-view camera image.

The drive assist feature is suspended if the vehicle’s speed exceeds 19 mph (30 km/h). The touchscreen displays a warning message. Normal operation resumes when the vehicle’s speed is less than 19 mph (30 km/h).

The touchscreen camera view displays three images: one from the front camera and one from each door mirror camera. Touch either of the door mirror camera views for a two image display, i.e., the selected door mirror camera view and the front camera view. Touch the return icon to return to the three image display.

WADE SENSING

WARNING
Avoid driving in floodwaters or any flowing water. Doing so can potentially lead to serious injury or death.
WARNING
Do not assume that using the wade sensing feature makes wading any less dangerous. The wade sensing feature only detects the immediate level of water touching the vehicle. The wade sensing feature cannot detect or predict the depth of water surrounding the vehicle or rapid increases in water levels about to occur. Hence the wade sensing feature cannot predict whether it is safe to continue driving. The driver is responsible for assessing the safety of the driving conditions, potential hazards, and the current driving direction to avoid vehicle damage or personal injury.
WARNING
When entering water from a steep grade, the water level may rise rapidly. The wade sensing feature may not be able to accurately warn the driver of the current water level. The potential result can be serious injury or death.
WARNING
The wade sensing feature cannot detect accurate water levels if a layer of ice or snow exists on the surface of the water. The potential result can be serious injury or death.
WARNING
The sensors for the wade sensing feature are located on the base of the door mirrors. The sensors must be kept clean and free from snow, ice, mud, and other debris. Failure to keep the sensors clean can result in sensor miscalculation, potentially leading to vehicle damage or personal injury.
WARNING
If the door mirrors are in the fold position, the wade sensing feature operates but displays false information. The potential result may lead to vehicle damage or personal injury.

NOTES
The door mirrors must be in the normal (unfolded) position for correct operation of the wade sensing feature.
NOTES
Operation of the wade sensing feature disables the parking aid system, the park assist system, and the auto stop/start system.
The wade sensing feature is designed to aid the driver in calculating the current depth while driving through water. The touchscreen displays the current detected water level and the vehicle’s maximum wading depth.

Select Wade Sensing from the 4x4i extra feature. See EXTRA FEATURES.

The wade sensing feature cannot be enabled if the All Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) system is currently enabled. See USING ALL TERRAIN PROGRESS CONTROL (ATPC).

Use the 4X4i SETTINGS menu screen to configure the units displayed in the wade sensing feature. Select the Meters or Feet soft key, as required. See SYSTEM SETTINGS.

If the detected water level approaches the vehicle’s maximum wading depth, the touchscreen and the instrument panel display warning messages. Audible warning tones also sound.

If the wade sensing feature limitations are exceeded, the touchscreen image illuminates gray and the water level no longer displays.

The wade sensing feature does not operate when the vehicle’s speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h) or the current gradient exceeds 10°. Operation automatically resumes when the vehicle’s speed returns to less than 6 mph (10 km/h) or the current gradient is less than 10°. If the vehicle’s speed exceeds 19 mph (30 km/h) for 30 seconds, the wade sensing feature automatically switches off.
