DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)
DSC must be switched off when traction
devices are fitted. See 238, USING SNOW
CHAINS.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is
unable to compensate for driver
misjudgement. It remains the driver's
responsibility to drive with due care
and attention, in a manner which is
safe for the vehicle, its occupants and
the other road users.
In some driving conditions it may be appropriate
to disable DSC to improve traction. These
conditions include:
•
•
•
Rocking the vehicle out of a hollow or deep
rut.
Pulling away in deep snow, or a loose
surface.
This vehicle is not designed for
cornering at the same speed as
conventional passenger cars any more
than a low-slung sports car is designed
to perform satisfactorily under off-road
conditions. If at all possible, avoid
sharp turns or abrupt manoeuvres. As
with other vehicles of this type, failure
to operate the vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or vehicle
rollover.
Driving through deep sand or mud.
DSC maintains vehicle stability, even in critical
driving situations. The system controls dynamic
stability when accelerating and when starting
from a standstill. Additionally, it identifies
unstable driving behaviour, such as understeer
and oversteer and helps to keep the vehicle
under control by manipulating the engine output
and applying the brakes at individual wheels.
Some noise may be generated when the brakes
are applied.
To disable DSC, press and briefly hold the DSC
OFF switch. The DSC OFF warning lamp will
illuminate (see 50, DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (DSC) OFF (AMBER)). Deactivating
DSC also reduces the level of Traction control
intervention and may lead to an increase in
wheel spin.
SWITCHING DSC OFF
Note: DSC cannot be disabled in Automatic
mode. See 133, TERRAIN RESPONSE
OPERATION.
Safety may be reduced by
inappropriately disabling DSC. In the
majority of driving situations, and
particularly on-road, it is
recommended that you do not disable
DSC.
SWITCHING DSC ON
Note: DSC is enabled automatically at the start
of each ignition cycle.
