Electric Power Steering  
Steering Mode Switching  
The electric power steering system provides 3 different  
steering modes:  
If the electric power steering fails or cannot  
operate the steering will appear very heavy,  
this will affect driving safety.  
1
Normal: provides moderate power assistance.  
2
Urban: provides a high level of assistance, with a light  
feel.  
The electric power steering system only works when the  
vehicle is started. The system operates via a motor with  
assistance levels automatically adjusted based on vehicle  
speed, steering wheel torque and steering wheel angle.  
3
Dynamic: provides low level power assistance, with a  
heavier feel.  
The steering mode is selectable for vehicle speeds up to 60  
mph (100 km/h) through the touch screen interface.  
IMPORTANT  
Holding the steering wheel on full lock for long periods  
will result in a reduction in power assistance causing a  
heavier feel to the steering for a short period of time.  
Note: Steering mode selection is only available when  
the steering wheel is not being turned. Any changes  
made in this state will not take effect until the steering  
wheel is straight ahead.
