Off-road drive program
The off-road drive program is available
only in vehicles without the Off-Road Pro
engineering package.
The off-road drive program assists you in driving off-road. The engine’s performance characteristics and the gearshifting characteristics of the automatic transmission are adapted for this purpose. ABS, ESP® and 4 ETS programs especially adapted to offroad driving are also activated.
Do not use the off-road drive program on roads that are covered in snow or icy or if you have installed snow chains on your vehicle.
For information about driving off-road, see.
