System warnings
System warnings alert you to possible problems or malfunctions in your
vehicle’s operating systems.
In the event of a multiple warning situation, the message center will
cycle the display to show all warnings by displaying each one for 4
seconds.
The message center will display the last selected feature if there are no
more warning messages. This allows you to use the full functionality of
the message center after you acknowledge the warning by pressing the
RESET control and clearing the warning message.
Warning messages that have been reset are divided into three categories:
•They cannot be cleared until the condition is corrected.
•They will reappear on the display ten minutes from the reset.
•They will not reappear until an ignition OFF-ON cycle has been
completed.
This acts as a reminder that these warning conditions still exist within
the vehicle.

CONTROL TRAC FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4X4) OPERATION
(IF EQUIPPED)
For important information regarding safe operation of this type
of vehicle, seePreparing to drive your vehiclein this chapter.
Do not use 4X4 mode on dry, hard surfaced roads. Doing so will produce
excessive noise, increase tire wear and may damage drive components.
4X4 mode is only intended for consistently slippery or loose surfaces.
Use of 4X4 mode on these surfaces may produce some noise (such as
occasional clunks) but will not damage drive components.
Your 4x4 features the heavy-duty Control Trac system which includes a
computer-operated transfer case. This unique system is interactive with
the road, continually monitoring and adjusting torque delivery to the
front and rear wheels to optimize vehicle control.
System indicator messages
The Control Trac system indicator messages display in the reconfigurable
telltale (RTT) location in the message center only under the following
conditions. If these messages display when driving in 4X2, contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer toWarning lights and
chimesin theInstrument Clusterchapter.
•4X4 AUTO– displays when 4X4 AUTO is selected.
•4X4– displays when 4X4 is selected.
Positions of the Control Trac system
The Control Trac system functions
in three modes:
•4X2 (2WD)delivers power to
the rear wheels only. This is
appropriate for normal on-road
driving on dry pavement.
•4X4 AUTOprovides electronic
control four-wheel drive with power delivered to all four wheels, as
required, for increased traction. The RTT location in the message
center will display “4X4 AUTO” when this position is selected. This is
appropriate for all on-road driving conditions, such as dry road
surfaces, wet pavement, snow or gravel.

•4X4provides electronically locked four-wheel drive power to front and
rear wheels. The RTT location in the message center will display “4X4”
when this position is selected. This position is not recommended for use
on dry pavement. This position is only intended for severe winter or
off-road conditions, such as deep snow, ice or shallow sand.
Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles arenotdesigned for cornering
at speeds as high as passenger cars any more than low-slung sports
cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road conditions.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers in these vehicles.
Note:The Control Trac selector switch should not be changed while the
rear wheels are slipping.
Shifting between modes
Press any button (4X2, 4X4 AUTO or 4X4) at any forward speed up to
55 mph (88 km/h). The message center may display “4X4 SHIFT IN
PROGRESS” during the system shift. The RTT location in the message
center will then display “4X4 AUTO” if 4X4 AUTO is selected or “4X4” if
4X4 is selected.
Note:Some noise may be heard as the system shifts or engages.
Driving off-road with truck and utility vehicles
Four–wheel drive vehicles are specially equipped for driving on sand,
snow, mud and rough terrain and have operating characteristics that are
somewhat different from conventional vehicles, both on and off the road.
The AdvanceTrac
with RSC stability enhancement system can be turned
off manually by pressing the AdvanceTrac
with RSC button (refer to
AdvanceTrac
with Roll Stability Control (RSC) Stability
Enhancement Systemin this chapter) while operating in 4X2, 4X4
AUTO or 4X4 while driving in deep sand, very deep snow or more
strenuous off-road maneuvers. This will disable the engine management
feature, allowing the vehicle to maintain full power and enhanced
momentum through the obstacle.
How your vehicle differs from other vehicles
Truck and utility vehicles can differ from some other vehicles. Your
vehicle may be higher to allow it to travel over rough terrain without
getting hung up or damaging underbody components.
The differences that make your vehicle so versatile also make it handle
differently than an ordinary passenger car.
