This switch allows the driver to quickly adjust the car's dynamic settings without taking their hands off the wheel. It alters parameters for the electronic differential, traction control, stability control, suspension stiffness, and transmission shift speeds. Modes typically range from wet weather safety settings to full track configurations with all assists disabled.
