MUD-RUTS
SAND
Note: If the vehicle is unable to gain traction in
extremely soft, dry sand, switching DSC off
may help. DSC should be switched on again as
soon as the difficulty is overcome.
If the sand to be crossed is damp/wet, and
sufficiently deep to cause the wheels to sink
into the surface, the Mud-Ruts program should
be used.
DYNAMIC
DRIVER OVERRIDE OPTIONS
Hill Descent Control (HDC) is automatically
engaged for some Terrain Response programs.
If required, HDC can be deselected or engaged
independently of Terrain Response. See 115,
HDC CONTROLS.
The HDC status will be displayed in the
Message centre whether it is engaged, or
disengaged, by the system or by the driver.
Although Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is
automatically engaged when a special program
is selected, it can be turned off if required. See
90, SWITCHING DSC OFF.
SYSTEM DIFFICULTIES
Use of an incorrect program will impair
the vehicle's response to the terrain and
can reduce the life of the suspension
and drive systems.
If the system becomes partially inoperable for
any reason, it may not be possible to select a
special program.
If a participating vehicle system becomes
temporarily inoperable, the General program
will be automatically selected. Once the system
returns to normal operation, the previously
active program will be reactivated unless the
ignition has been turned off in the mean time.
If you try to select an inappropriate special
programme, the relevant indicator will flash
amber and the Message centre will provide
further information. If the appropriate action is
not taken within 60 seconds, the warnings will
cease and the Message centre will show the
active program.
If the system becomes completely inoperable,
all of the special program indicators will be
switched off and a relevant message will be
displayed in the Message centre.
This program should be used for
crossing terrain that is muddy,
rutted, soft or uneven.
This program should be used for
terrain which is predominantly
soft dry sand or deep gravel.
This program is associated with a
driving style, rather than a type of
terrain and optimises traction,
handling and driveability, for
maximum feedback and
responsiveness. Select this
program to exploit the vehicle’s
full on-road potential.
