Drive with everything on, until you get stuck. Then press the DSC button once (to enable DTC mode) and that should help you get unstuck by giving a greater degree of wheelspin. If you're still stuck, then full DSC-off mode.

DTC on (i.e. one press so that DTC lights on dash) to get moving then back to normal.

EDIT - exactly as Tony

Couldn't agree more, that's pretty much what i'm doing (when I dare to go out!). Although down my street I always start with DSC pressed once as it's pretty bad.
