JaguarDrive Control gives the driver an opportunity to fine tune the driving characteristics of the vehicle.
This is achieved by selecting from the following driving modes.
Winter mode and Dynamic modes cannot be active simultaneously.
Message center
The message center displays the selected
JaguarDrive Selector position and JaguarDrive
Control mode.
1. Selector positions P,R,N,D and S
2. Manual mode gear selections 1 to 6

When TracDSC is selected, the DSC warning
lamp will illuminate and the message center will
briefly display TracDSC.
When DSC OFF is selected, the DSC warning
lamp will illuminate and the message center will
display DSC OFF until DSC is reinstated.
Winter mode
Use in slippery conditions. When active, this
mode selects 2nd gear for driving away, it
moderates engine power output and modifies
the gear change strategy. This ensures that
maximum possible traction is achieved.
Dynamic mode

involved driving experience. TracDSC is
automatically engaged.

DSC On is the default condition at engine start.
TracDSC provides more driver involvement by
reducing the influence of DSC. Press the button
until TracDSC is displayed in the message
center. Press again to reactivate DSC.
Press and hold the switch for ten seconds to
switch off DSC.
Winter mode and Dynamic mode will remain
selected for six hours after the ignition is
switched off.
