TOW/HAUL MODE
• When driving in hilly areas, towing atrailer, carrying a heavy load, etc., and
frequent transmission shifting occurs,
press the TOW/HAUL button. This will
improve performance and reduce the
potential for transmission overheating
or failure due to excessive shifting.
When operating in TOW/HAUL mode,
the transmission will shift into third
gear.
NOTE: The TOW/HAUL mode locks out
Overdrive.
• The “TOW/HAUL Indicator Light” willilluminate in the instrument cluster to
indicate when the switch 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.)
Recreational Towing —
Two-Wheel Drive Models
• Recreational towing is allowed if therear wheels are OFFthe ground. This
may be accomplished using a tow
dolly or vehicle trailer. If using a tow
dolly, follow this procedure:
• Properly secure the dolly to the tow vehicle, following the dolly
manufacturer's instructions.
• Drive the rear wheels onto the tow dolly, firmly set the parking brake and
place the transmission in PARK.
• Turn the ignition switch to the unlocked OFF position.
• Install a suitable clamping device, designed for towing, to secure the
front wheels in the straight position.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable and secure it away from the battery
post.
• Flat towing (with all four wheels
on the ground) is allowed ONLY if
the driveshaft is removed. Towing
with the rear wheels on the ground
while the driveshaft is connected will
result in severe transmission damage.
• The parking brake mustbe 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.

• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable;however, see an authorized service center immediately. 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

• Press the odometer reset button to turn the message off.
• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas cap, see your authorized service center.
