software calibration of various
sub-systems. Depending on the option
package, available features, and mode
selected, the suspension, steering, and
powertrain will change calibrations to
achieve the desired mode
characteristics.
Press and release MODE on the center
console to activate the mode menu in
the instrument cluster. The first press
of the button will show the current
mode. Subsequent presses will scroll
through the available modes. Select a
new setting whenever driving
conditions change. The following
modes are available:
Tour Mode
Use for normal city and highway
driving to provide a smooth, soft ride.
If the vehicle is equipped with AWD,
the Tour Mode is in between the Spor t
and the Snow/Ice Modes for a more
balanced feel.
Sport Mode
Use where road conditions or personal
preference demand a more controlled
response.
When selected, the Sport Mode
indicator will display in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
When in Sport Mode, the vehicle will
shift automatically but may hold a
lower gear longer than it would in the
normal driving mode based on
braking, throttle input, and vehicle
lateral acceleration. See Automatic
Transmission 0 201. The steering,
including Active Rear Steer (if
equipped), will change to provide
more precise control.
If the vehicle is equipped with AWD,
the Sport Mode sends more torque to
the rear wheels.
Snow/Ice Mode
Use when more traction is needed
during slippery conditions. Snow/Ice
Mode will use a different accelerator
pedal map in order to optimize
traction on slippery sur faces.
When selected, the Snow/Ice Mode
indicator will display in the DIC.
This feature is not intended for use
when the vehicle is stuck in sand,
mud, ice, snow, or gravel. If the
vehicle becomes stuck, see If the
Vehicle Is Stuck 0 190.
If the vehicle is equipped with AWD,
the Snow/Ice Mode will provide more
torque to the front wheels.
