Turn the control located on the center console to choose between the

following modes:

1. Grass/Gravel/Snow

2. Sand

3. Mud/Ruts

4. Normal

• Normal - This mode is for on-road conditions. If not already active,

Normal should be selected before driving on surfaces which are similar

to a hard road surface. This mode should be selected once the need

for a special mode has passed. Use Normal mode when towing a

trailer.

Note: Cruise control is available only in Normal and Snow modes.

• Grass/Gravel/Snow - This mode should be used where a firm surface is

covered with loose or slippery material. Surfaces covered in packed

snow, ice, water, grass, gravel, or a thin coating of sand for example.

For deep gravel, it is recommended that the Sand mode is selected. If

the vehicle is unable to gain traction in deep snow, switching traction

control off may help. Traction control should be switched on again as

soon as the difficulty is overcome. See Switching Off AdvanceTrac威

with RSC earlier in this chapter.

Note: The Mud/Ruts and Sand modes are for off-road use only.

Note: Curve Control is unavailable when the Mud/Ruts or Sand modes

are selected.

• Sand - This mode should be used for soft dry sand, or deep gravel

terrain. If the sand to be crossed is damp/wet, and sufficiently deep

enough to cause the wheels to sink into the surface, the Mud/Ruts

mode should be selected.

• Mud/Ruts - This mode should be used for muddy, rutted, soft, or

uneven terrain.

If the terrain management system becomes inoperable, it may not be

possible to select specific modes and a message will be displayed. If the

TMS becomes inoperable due to a system malfunction, all of the mode

indicators on the control will turn off and the message center will display

one of the following messages.
