TABLE OF CONTENTS

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
OPERATION
Quadra-Trac I®Operating
Instructions/Precautions
• The Quadra-Trac I®is a single-speed
(HI range only) transfer case, which
provides convenient full-time
four–wheel drive. No driver interaction
is required. The Brake Traction Control
(BTC) System, which combines
standard ABS and Traction Control,
provides resistance to any wheel that is
slipping to allow additional torque
transfer to wheels with traction.
Quadra-Trac II®/Quadra-Drive
II®Operating Instructions/
Precautions
• The Quadra-Trac II®/Quadra-Drive II®
transfer case is fully automatic in the
normal driving 4WD HI mode. The
Quadra-Trac II
®/Quadra-Drive II®
transfer case provides three mode
positions:
• 4WD HI
• NEUTRAL
• 4WD LOW
• This transfer case is fully automatic in the 4WD HI mode. • When additional traction is required,
the 4WD LOW position can be used to
lock the front and rear driveshafts
together and force the front and rear
wheels to rotate at the same speed.
The 4WD LOW position is intended for
loose, slippery road surfaces only.
Driving in the 4WD LOW position on dry,
hard-surfaced roads may cause
increased tire wear and damage to
driveline components.
• When operating your vehicle in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is
approximately three times that of the
4WD HI position at a given road speed.
Take care not to overspeed the engine
and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE:
• If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor
temperature protection condition
exists, a “CHECK SHIFT PROCEDURES”
message will flash from the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you
leave the vehicle unattended with the
transfer case in the N (Neutral)
position without first fully engaging
the parking brake. The transfer case
N (Neutral) position disengages both
the front and rear driveshafts from
the powertrain and will allow the
vehicle to move regardless of the
transmission position. The parking
brake should always be applied when
the driver is not in the vehicle.

OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES

Shifting Procedures
4WD HI To 4WD LOW
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph(0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will
begin to flash and remain on solid
when the shift is complete. Release the
T-handle.
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur
due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may
be required for clutch teeth alignment
and shift completion to occur. The
preferred method is with the vehicle
rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the
vehicle is moving faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the transfer case will not
allow the shift.
4WD LOW To 4WD HI
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph(0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will flash
and go out when the shift is complete.
Release the T-handle.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
• Key ON, engine off.
• Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
• Place the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Hold down the NEUTRAL “pin” switch
(with a pen, etc.) for four seconds until
the LED light by the switch starts to
blink indicating shift in progress. The
light will stop blinking (stay on solid)
when the NEUTRAL shift is complete. A
“4WD SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL” message
will display on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
• Repeat these Steps to shift out of NEUTRAL.

RECREATIONAL TOWING
(BEHIND MOTORHOME,
ETC.)
Towing - Two-Wheel Drive
Models
• Recreational towing is allowed ONLY ifthe driveshaft is removed. Towing with
the rear wheels on the ground while
the driveshaft is connected can result
in severe transmission damage.
WARNING!
If the driveshaft is removed, the
vehicle can roll even if the
transmission is in PARK, which could
cause serious injury or death.
• The parking brake must be firmly engaged and the wheels chocked
during driveshaft removal and
installation. The parking brake must
remain engaged unless the vehicle is
securely and properly connected to the
tow vehicle, or the driveshaft is
completely reinstalled. See your
authorized dealer for proper driveshaft
removal and reinstallation procedures,
including flange orientation/alignment,
use of thread-locking compound,
proper bolt torque specifications, etc.
Towing - Quadra-Trac I®
(Single-Speed Transfer Case)
Four-Wheel Drive Models
• Recreational towing is not allowed. Thismodel does not have a NEUTRAL
position in the transfer case.
Towing - Quadra-Trac II®
/Quadra-Drive II®Four-Wheel
Drive Models
• Depress the brake pedal and turn the
ignition switch ON with the engine shut
off.
• Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Shift the transfer case into NEUTRAL by holding down the NEUTRAL Pin
switch for four seconds until the LED
starts to blink. The LED will stop
blinking and remain on when the shift
is complete.
• Start the engine and shift into DRIVE to ensure there is no vehicle movement.
• Shut the engine off and shift the transmission into PARK.
• Place the ignition switch in the OFF position and remove the key.

- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
• This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle theignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the
PARK position; the light should turn off.
• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is flashing
when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience
reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.
- Airbag Warning Light
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, we recommendyou drive to the nearest Service Center and have the system serviced as soon as
possible.
Fuel Cap/Loose Gas Cap Message
• If a “gas cap” message (shown as Check Gascap) appears, tighten the gas cap until a“clicking” sound is heard.
• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas cap, see your authorized dealer.
Oil Change Indicator
Message
• If an “oil change” message (shown as Oil Change Required) appears and a single chimesounds, it is time for your next required oil change.
Resetting The Light After Servicing
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start engine).
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal three times within 10 seconds.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
• In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by takingthe appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, shift transmission into NEUTRAL, but do not increase engine idle speed.
NOTE: There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the Temperature Control to maximum heat, the Mode Control to floor and the Fan Control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the
radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

Jack Location
• The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are located in the passenger sidecompartment, behind the second row seat.
Spare Tire Stowage
• To remove or stow the spare, use the jack handle to rotate the “spare tire drive” nut whichis located under a plastic cover under the cargo load floor, just inside the liftgate opening.
• Lower the spare tire by turning the drive nut counterclockwise with the jack-handle assembly until the spare tire is on the ground with enough cable slack to allow you to
pull the spare tire out from underneath the vehicle.
• When the spare is clear, tilt the retainer at the end of the cable and pull it through the center of the wheel.
Preparations For Jacking
• Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
• Set the parking brake and shift the automatic transmission into PARK.
• Turn the ignition to LOCK and turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

Preparations for Jump-Start
• The battery in your vehicle is located in the front of the engine compartment, behind theleft headlight assembly.
WARNING!
• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It can start anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving fan blades.
• Remove any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets that might make an inadvertent electrical contact. You could be seriously injured.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas which is flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or sparks
away from the battery.
• Set the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK and turn the ignition to LOCK.
• Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessary electrical accessories.
• If using a another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.
