for extra traction in slippery
conditions, such as in snow,
on icy roads, or in off-road
situations. It should not be
operated on dry pavement.
4X4 LOW can be selected
to provide extra gearing to
deliver maximum power to
all four wheels. It is intended
only for off-road applications
such as deep sand, steep
grades or pulling heavy objects.
SYNC
®
(if equipped)
SYNC® is a hands-free
communications and
entertainment system

® Supplement
or to the SYNC® section in
the Navigation Supplement.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)
(if equipped)
The AWD system is always
active and uses all four wheels
to power the vehicle, thereby
increasing traction and enabling you to drive over
terrain and road conditions
that a conventional
two-wheel drive vehicle
cannot. The system is capable
of handling many different
road conditions, including
street and highway driving
as well as off-road conditions
such as deep snow, ice or
shallow sand. Note: If your
vehicle is equipped with
AWD, a spare tire of a
different size (other than the
tire provided) should never
be used. Using a different size
could cause the AWD system
to stop functioning and
default to front wheel drive.
Refer to your Owner’s Guide
for more information.
Use extreme caution when using any device or feature
that may take your attention off the road. Your primary
responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Only use
non-essential features and devices when it is safe to do so.
