(EVIC)
• The EVIC features a driver interactive
display that is located in the
instrument cluster. Pressing the
controls on the left side of the steering
wheel allows the driver to select
vehicle information and Personal
Settings. For additional information,
refer to Programmable Features in this

Compass Calibration
• This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to set the compass
manually. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the EVIC
will display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated.
• You may also calibrate the compass manually by selecting Setup (Customer-
Programmable Features) in the EVIC, then select Compass Variance and then enter
the correct variance. Next, select Calibrate Compass in the Setup menu to start the
calibration process. The “CAL” indicator will be displayed in the EVIC. Complete

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
OPERATION
Single-Speed Operating Instructions/
Precautions
• This system contains a single-speed
(HI range only) transfer case, which
provides convenient full-time
all-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.
NOTE:This system is not appropriate for
conditions where AWD LOW range is
recommended. Refer to “Off-Road Driving
Tips” in “Starting and Operating” on the
DVD for further information.
Electronically Shifted Transfer Case
(Three-Position Switch)
• This is an electronic shift transfer
case and is operated by the AWD
Control Switch (Transfer Case
Switch), which is located on the
center console.• This electronically shifted transfer
case provides three mode positions:
• All-wheel drive automatic range
(AWD AUTO)
• All-wheel drive low range (LOW
RANGE)
• Neutral (NEUTRAL)
• When additional traction is required,
the LOW RANGE position can be
used to lock the front and rear
driveshafts together forcing the front
and rear wheels to rotate at the same
speed. The LOW RANGE position are
designed for loose, slippery road
surfaces only. Driving in the LOW
RANGE positions on dry hard
surfaced roads may cause increased
tire wear and damage to the driveline
components.
• When operating your vehicle in LOW
RANGE, the engine speed is
approximately three times that of the
AWD HI position at a given road
speed. Take care not to overspeed
the engine and do not exceed
25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE:The “SERV AWD Warning Light”
monitors the electronic shift all-wheel
drive system. If this light remains on after
engine start up or illuminates during
driving, it means that the all-wheel drive
system is not functioning properly and
that service is required.

TOW/HAUL MODE
• When driving in hilly areas, towing a
trailer, carrying a heavy load, etc.,
and frequent transmission shifting
occurs, press the TOW/HAUL switch
to select TOW/HAUL mode. This will
improve performance and reduce the
potential for transmission
overheating or failure due to
excessive shifting. When operating in
TOW/HAUL mode, transmission
upshifts are delayed, and the
transmission will automatically
downshift (for engine braking) during
steady braking maneuvers.
• The “TOW/HAUL Indicator Light”
will illuminate in the instrument
cluster to indicate that TOW/HAUL
mode has been activated. Pressing
the switch a second time restores
normal operation. If the TOW/HAUL
mode is desired, the switch must be
pressed each time the engine is
started.
RECREATIONAL
TOWING (BEHIND
MOTORHOME, ETC.)
Rear-Wheel Drive Models
•Recreational towing is not allowed.
All-Wheel Drive Models (Single-Speed
Transfer Case)
•Recreational towing is not allowed.
This model does not have a
NEUTRAL position in the transfer
case.
All-Wheel Drive Models (Two-Speed
Transfer Case)
NOTE:The transfer case must be in the
NEUTRAL position, and the transmission
must be in the PARK position for
recreational towing.
Shifting Into NEUTRAL
• Use the following procedure to
prepare your vehicle for recreational
towing.
• Bring the vehicle to a complete stop
and shift the transmission to PARK.
Turn the engine off.
• For vehicles with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
remove the Keyless Enter-N-Go
button and use the Key Fob to
complete this procedure.
• Turn the ignition switch to the
ON/RUN position, but do not start
the engine.
• Press and hold the brake pedal and
shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL.
• Press and hold the transfer case N
(Neutral) button for four seconds,
until the light next to the N symbol
starts to blink, indicating shift in
progress. The light will stop blinking
(stay on solid) when the shift to N
(Neutral) is complete.

• Start the engine and shift the
transmission into REVERSE.
• Release the brake pedal for five
seconds and ensure that there is no
vehicle movement.
• Turn the engine off and firmly apply
the parking brake.
• Shift the transmission into PARK and
remove the Key Fob.
• Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle
using a suitable tow bar and release
the parking brake.
CAUTION!
• Towing with the rear wheels on the
ground will cause severe
transmission damage. Damage
from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
• Front or rear wheel lifts should not
be used. Internal damage to the
transmission or transfer case will
occur if a front or rear wheel lift is
used when recreational towing.
• It is necessary to follow these
steps to be certain that the
transfer case is fully in NEUTRAL
before recreational towing to
prevent damage to internal parts.
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you
leave the vehicle unattended with
the transfer case in the NEUTRAL
position without first fully engaging
the parking brake. The transfer case
NEUTRAL position disengages both
the front and rear driveshafts from
the powertrain and will allow the
vehicle to move even if the
transmission is in PARK. The
parking brake should always be
applied when the driver is not in the
vehicle.
UTILITY
63

• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels.
TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped
on your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result
when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or
style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant
from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as
damage to the sensors may result.
BRAKE- Brake Warning Light
• The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or
the parking brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied,
it indicates a possible brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an
Anti-Lock Brake System problem.
• We recommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle
serviced immediately.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake
system may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a
collision. Have the vehicle checked immediately.
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
• Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may
illuminate the MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light
stays on through several typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will
drive normally and not require towing.
• If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that
could lead to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. We
recommend you do not operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
