Off road mode
An adapted low speed mode that increases the car's traction when driving in difficult terrain, on steep downhill gradients, and on a poor surface.
The driver controls the speed using the accelerator pedal. When the accelerator pedal is released, the car slows down to creep, regardless of the gradient of the hill and without the need for the foot brake to be used.
The brake lights are switched on when the function is operating. The driver can brake and reduce crawling speed, or stop the car at any time by using the foot brake.
Remember the following:
- The mode is only available at low speeds, up to 40 km/h (25 mph). Off road mode is deactivated if the speed is exceeded.
Note
Off road mode is not designed to be used on public roads.
