OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH
• Overdrive can be locked out bypressing the O/D OFF switch located
on the center console. An indicator
light in the instrument cluster will
illuminate to show that the switch has
been activated. Pressing the switch a
second time restores the Overdrive
function.
• When frequent transmission shifting occurs while using Overdrive, such as
when operating the vehicle under
heavy load conditions (for example, in
hilly terrain, strong head winds, or
trailer towing), turning off overdrive will
improve performance and extend
transmission life by reducing
excessive shifting and heat buildup.
RECREATIONAL TOWING
(BEHIND MOTORHOME)
Towing - Two-Wheel Drive
Models
• Recreational towing with all fourwheels on the ground is allowed
ONLY if the rear driveshaft is
removed. See your authorized dealer
or refer to the Service Manual. Towing
with the rear wheels on the ground
while the driveshaft is connected can
result in severe transmission damage. • 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 - Four-Wheel Drive
Models
NOTE: The transfer case must be shifted
into N (Neutral), automatic transmission
must be shifted into PARK,and manual
transmission must be placed in gear (NOT
in NEUTRAL) for recreational towing.
• Bring the vehicle to a complete stop,turn off the engine and press and hold
the brake pedal.
• Shift the automatic transmission into NEUTRAL or depress the clutch
pedal on a manual transmission.
• Shift the transfer case lever into N (Neutral).
• Start the engine and shift the transmission into REVERSE.
• Release the brake pedal (and clutch pedal on manual transmissions) for
five seconds and ensure that there is
no vehicle movement.
• Repeat the previous step with automatic transmission in DRIVE or
manual transmission in first gear.
• Turn OFF the engine and leave the ignition switch in the unlocked OFF
position.
• Firmly apply the parking brake and shift the transmission into PARK or
place manual transmission in gear
(NOT in Neutral).

- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
• This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, werecommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
- 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 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 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
require towing.
- Airbag Warning Light
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have thevehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
Fuel Cap/Loose Gas Cap Message
• If a “gas cap” message (shown as gASCAP) appears, tighten the gas cap until a“clicking” sound is heard.
• 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.
Oil Change IndicatorMessage
• If an “oil change” message (shown as CHAngE OIL) appears and a single chime sounds, 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.
HOTOIL – Transmission Temperature Warning Message
• The HOTOIL cluster message will appear in the odometer accompanied with a chime to indicate that there is excessive transmission fluid temperature that might
occur with severe usage such as trailer towing.
• It may also occur when operating the vehicle in a high torque converter slip condition, such as 4-wheel-drive operation (e.g., snow plowing, off-road operation).
• If this HOTOIL message turns on, stop the vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster, with the transmission in NEUTRAL until the message turns off.
