Jeep 2011 Wrangler - Manual (Page 423)

WARNING!
With the ESC switched off, the enhanced vehicle
stability offered by ESC and ERM are unavailable. In
an emergency evasive maneuver, the ESC and ERM
systems will not engage to assist in maintaining
stability. The “Full Off” mode is intended for off-
road use only.
Disabling ESC For Modified Vehicles (4WD
Models Only)
Vehicles modified with larger tires and/or suspension
lifts may experience early ESC activations as compared to
a non-modified production vehicle depending on lift
size, tire size, suspension changes and/or driving habits.
If early ESC activations are experienced while driving a
modified vehicle, the additional ability to permanently
turn off ESC is available. A steering wheel/ESC button
maneuver must be performed to permanently disable
ESC and defeat the functionality of the ESC switch.
Repeating the procedure will return the system to normal
ESC operation and restore ESC switch functionality al-
lowing ESC “Partial” or “Off” modes.
WARNING!
With ESC in the permanent disable mode, enhanced
vehicle stability offered by the ESC and ERM sys-
tems is unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneu-
ver, the ESC and ERM systems will not engage to
assist in maintaining stability. This disabled mode is
intended for off-highway or off-road use only. Ve-
hicle modifications requiring the owner to configure
the vehicle in the ESC disabled mode, will seriously
affect the vehicle’s roadworthiness and safety and
may lead to loss of control and/or collision resulting
in possible serious or fatal injuries.
