Ambient LightThe overhead console is equipped with an
ambient light feature. This light casts illumina-
tion for improved visibility of the floor center
console and PRNDL area.
Multifunction LeverThe multifunction lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
Turn SignalsMove the multifunction lever up or down and
the arrows on each side of the instrument
cluster flash to show proper operation of the
front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash,
or there is a very fast flash rate, check for a
defective outside light bulb. If an indicator
fails to light when the lever is moved, it
would suggest that the indicator bulb is
defective.
Lane Change AssistTap the lever up or down once, without moving
beyond the detent, and the turn signal (right or
left) will flash three times then automatically turn
off.
Flash-To-PassYou can signal another vehicle with your head-
lights by partially pulling the multifunction lever
toward the steering wheel. This will cause the
high beam headlights to turn on until the lever
is released.

A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC
predicts that its maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this
occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will flash in the
EVIC and a chime will sound while ACC con-
tinues to apply its maximum braking capacity.
When this occurs, you should immediately ap-
ply the brakes as needed to maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) MenuThe EVIC displays the current ACC system
settings. The EVIC is located in the upper part
of the instrument cluster between the speed-ometer and the tachometer. The information it
displays depends on ACC system status.
Menu Button
Press the MENU button (located
on the steering wheel) repeatedly
until one of the following displays
in the EVIC:
Adaptive Cruise Control Off When ACC is deactivated, the display willread “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”
Adaptive Cruise Control Ready When ACC is activated but the vehiclespeed setting has not been selected, the
display will read “Adaptive Cruise Control
Ready.”
ACC SET When ACC is set, the set speed willdisplay.
The set speed will continue to display in
place of the odometer reading when
changing the EVIC display while ACC is
set. The ACC screen will display once again if any
ACC activity occurs, which may include any of
the following:
•Set Speed Change
• Distance Setting Change
• System Cancel
• Acquisition/Loss of Target
• Driver Override
• System Off

2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like
the system to maintain by adjusting the driver
and front passenger temperature control but-
tons. Once the desired temperature is dis-
played, the system will achieve and automati-
cally maintain that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort
level, it is not necessary to change the settings.
You will experience the greatest efficiency by
simply allowing the system to function auto-
matically.
NOTE:
•It is not necessary to move the tempera-
ture settings for cold or hot vehicles. The
system automatically adjusts the tem-
perature, mode and fan speed to provide
comfort as quickly as possible.
• The temperature can be displayed in U.S.
or Metric units by selecting the US/M
customer-programmable feature. Refer to
the “Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) — Customer-Programmable
Features (SETUP)” in this section of the
manual. To provide you with maximum comfort in the
Automatic mode, during cold start-ups the
blower fan will remain on low until the engine
warms up. The blower will increase in speed
and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation
This system offers a full complement of manual
override features.
NOTE:
Each of these features operate indepen-
dently from each other. If any one feature is
controlled manually, temperature control
will continue to operate automatically.
There are seven fixed
blower speeds. Use
the outer dial control
to regulate the amount
of air forced through
the system in any
mode you select. The
blower speed in-
creases as you move
the control clockwise
and decreases when you move the control
counter-clockwise. The blower fan speed can be set to any fixed
speed by adjusting the blower control outer
dial. The fan will now operate at a fixed speed
until additional speeds are selected. This al-
lows the front occupants to control the volume
of air circulated in the vehicle and cancel the
Auto mode.
The operator can also select the direction of the
airflow by selecting one of the following posi-
tions.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the instru-
ment panel. Each of these outlets can be
individually adjusted to direct the flow of
air. The air vanes of the center outlets and
outboard outlets can be moved up and down or
side to side to regulate airflow direction. There
is a shut off wheel located below the air vanes
to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets, floor outlets and defrost outlets.

Selec-Terrain™ consists of the following posi-
tions:
•Sport – Dry weather, on-road calibration.
Only available in 4WD High range. Perfor-
mance based tuning that provides a rear
wheel drive feel but with improved handling
and acceleration over a two-wheel drive ve-
hicle. The Electronic Stability Control will set
to allow more driver control of vehicle while
maintaining safe handling controls. The ve-
hicle will lower (if equipped with Air Suspen-
sion) to Aero Mode in High Range. 4WD Low
is not available in SPORT mode, if 4WD Low
is selected the Selec-Terrain™ will automati-
cally switch back to AUTO.
• Snow – Tuning set for additional stability in
inclement weather. Use on and off road on
loose traction surfaces such as snow. When
in Snow mode (depending on certain oper-
ating conditions), the transmission may use
second gear (rather than first gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage. If
equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to Normal Ride Height (NRH) if the transfer case is in high range. The level will
change to Off-Road 1 if the transfer case is in
Low range.
• Auto – Fully automatic full time four-wheel
drive operation can be used on and off road.
Balances traction with seamless steering
feel to provide improved handling and accel-
eration over two-wheel drive vehicles. If
equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to NRH.
• Sand/Mud – Off road calibration for use on
low traction surfaces such as mud, sand, or
wet grass. Driveline is maximized for trac-
tion. Some binding may be felt on less for-
giving surfaces. The electronic brake con-
trols are set to limit traction control
management of throttle and wheel spin. If
equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to Off-Road 1.
• Rock – Off-road calibration only available in
4WD Low range. The vehicle is raised (if
equipped with Air Suspension) for improved
ground clearance. Traction based tuning
with improved steer-ability for use on high
traction off-road surfaces. Activates the Hill Descent Control for steep downhill control.
Use for low speed obstacles such as large
rocks, deep ruts, etc. If equipped with air
suspension, the vehicle level will change to
Off-Road 2. If the Selec-Terrain™ switch is in
ROCK mode, and the transfer case is
switched from 4WD Low to 4WD High, the
Selec-Terrain™ system will return to AUTO.

are flashing on theUp button the lowest solid
indicator lamp is the position the system is
working to achieve.
Pressing the “UP” button once will move the
suspension one position higher from the cur-
rent position, assuming all conditions are met
(i.e. engine running, speed below threshold,
etc). The “UP” button can be pressed multiple
times, each press will raise the requested level
by one position up to a maximum position of
OR2 or the highest position allowed based on
current conditions (i.e. vehicle speed, etc).
Pressing the “DOWN” button once will move
the suspension one position lower from the
current level, assuming all conditions are met
(i.e. engine running, doors closed, speed be-
low threshold, etc). The “DOWN” button can be
pressed multiple times. Each press will lower
the requested level by one position down to a
minimum of Park Mode or the lowest position
allowed based on current conditions (i.e. ve-
hicle speed, etc.)
Automatic height changes will occur based on
vehicle speed and the current vehicle height.
The indicator lamps and EVIC messages will operate the same for automatic changes and
user requested changes.
•
Off-Road 2 (OR2) – Indicator lamps 4, 5, and
6 will be illuminated when the vehicle is in
OR2.
• Off-Road 1 (OR1) – Indicator lamps 4 and 5
will be illuminated when the vehicle is in
OR1.
• Normal Ride Height (NRH) – Indicator lamp 4
will be illuminated when the vehicle is in this
position.
• Park Mode – Indicator lamp 3 will be illumi-
nated when the vehicle is in Park Mode. If
Park Mode is requested while vehicle speed
is between 15 mph (24 km/h) and 25 mph
(40 km/h), indicator lamp 4 will remain on
solid and indicator lamp 3 will flash as the
system waits for the vehicle to reduce
speed. If vehicle speed is reduced to, and
kept below, 15 mph (24 km/h) indicator lamp
4 will turn off and indicator lamp 3 will flash
until Park Mode is achieved at which point
indicator lamp 3 will go solid. If during the
height change to Park Mode, the vehicle
speed exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h), the height change will be paused until the vehicle
speed either goes below 15 mph (24 km/h)
and the height change continues to Park
Mode, or exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) and the
vehicle height will return to NRH. Park Mode
may be selected while the vehicle is not
moving provided that the engine is still run-
ning and all doors remain closed.
ON-ROAD DRIVING TIPSUtility vehicles have higher ground clearance
and a narrower track to make them capable of
performing in a wide variety of off-road applica-
tions. Specific design characteristics give them
a higher center of gravity than ordinary cars.
An advantage of the higher ground clearance
is a better view of the road, allowing you to
anticipate problems. They are not designed for
cornering at the same speeds as conventional
two-wheel drive vehicles any more than low-
slung sports cars are designed to perform
satisfactorily in off-road conditions. If at all
possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneu-
vers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure
to operate this vehicle correctly may result in
loss of control or vehicle rollover.

sink into deeper water. Determine exit point(s)
that are downstream of your entry point to allow
for drifting.
Standing Water
Avoid driving in standing water deeper than
20 in (51 cm), and reduce speed appropriately
to minimize wave effects. Maximum speed in
20 in (51 cm) of water is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h).
Maintenance
After driving through deep water, inspect your
vehicle fluids and lubricants (engine oil, trans-
mission oil, axle, transfer case) to assure the
fluids have not been contaminated. Contami-
nated fluid (milky, foamy in appearance) should
be flushed/changed as soon as possible to
prevent component damage.
Driving in Snow, Mud and SandIn heavy snow, when pulling a load, or for
additional control at slower speeds, shift the
transmission to a low gear and shift the transfer
case to 4WD LOW if necessary. Refer to “Four-
Wheel Drive Operation” in “Starting and Oper-
ating” for further information. Do not shift to a
lower gear than necessary to maintain forwardmotion. Over-revving the engine can spin the
wheels and traction will be lost.
Avoid abrupt downshifts on icy or slippery
roads, because engine braking may cause
skidding and loss of control.
Hill Climbing
NOTE:
Before attempting to climb a hill, determine
the conditions at the crest and/or on the
other side.
Before climbing a steep hill,
shift the trans-
mission to a lower gear and shift the transfer
case to 4WD LOW. Use first gear and 4WD
LOW for very steep hills.
If you stall or begin to lose forward motion
while climbing a steep hill, allow your vehicle to
come to a stop and immediately apply the
brakes. Restart the engine, and shift into RE-
VERSE. Back slowly down the hill, allowing the
compression braking of the engine to help
regulate your speed. If the brakes are required
to control vehicle speed, apply them lightly and
avoid locking or skidding the tires.
WARNING!
If the engine stalls, you lose forward motion,
or cannot make it to the top of a steep hill or
grade, never attempt to turn around. To do so
may result in tipping and rolling the vehicle.
Always back carefully straight down a hill in
REVERSE gear. Never back down a hill in
NEUTRAL using only the brake.
Remember, never drive diagonally across a
hill always drive straight up or down.
If the wheels start to slip as you approach the
crest of a hill, ease off the accelerator and
maintain forward motion by turning the front
wheels slowly. This may provide a fresh “bite”
into the surface and will usually provide traction
to complete the climb.
Traction DownhillShift the transmission into a low gear, and the
transfer case into 4WD LOW range. Let the
vehicle go slowly down the hill with all four
wheels turning against engine compression
drag. This will permit you to control the vehicle
speed and direction. 219
