EF 70-300MM F.4-5.6 IS USM Stabilizer Mode Switch?

[Hedgehog1]

I recently purchased a Canon EF 70-300MM F.4-5.6 IS USM "Ultrasonic" zoom lens. On the side is a Stabilizer Mode selection switch...Can someone explain to me the difference in the settings?  in the settings? Thanks a lot!

Mode 2 is used when panning.

Many thanks...The lens did not come with any sort of info sheet.
