Rotate the mode control knob to select the following Selec-Terrain™
positions: •Sport – Dry weather, on-road calibration. Only available in 4WD High
range. Performance-based tuning that provides a rear wheel drive feel
but with improved handling and acceleration over a two-wheel drive
vehicle. The Electronic Stability Control will set to allow more driver
control of the vehicle while maintaining safe handling controls. The
vehicle will lower (if equipped with Air Suspension) by 0.59 inches
(15 mm) in the SPORT mode.
• Snow – The Electronic Stability Control is set for additional stability in
inclement weather. Use on and off road on loose traction surfaces such
as snow.
• Auto – Fully automatic full-time four-wheel drive operation can be used
on and off road. Balances traction with steering feel to provide improved
handling and acceleration over two-wheel drive vehicles.
• Sand/Mud – Off-road calibration for use on low traction surfaces such as
mud, sand, or wet grass. Driveline is maximized for traction. Some
binding may be felt on less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake
controls are set to limit traction control management of throttle and
wheel spin.
• 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.
Quadra-Lift™
• The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system provides full time load
leveling capability along with the
benefit of being able to adjust
vehicle height by the push of a
button. Quadra-Lift™ is available
with both Quadra-Trac II® and

AUTOSTICK®
• AutoStick® is a driver-interactivetransmission feature that offers
manual gear shifting to provide
youwithmorecontrolofthe
vehicle. AutoStick® allows you to
maximize engine braking,
eliminate undesirable upshifts and
downshifts, and improve overall
vehicle performance.
• This system can also provide you with more control during passing,
city driving, cold slippery
conditions, mountain driving,
trailer towing, and many other
situations.
Operation
• When the shift lever is in the DRIVE position, the transmission willoperate automatically, shifting between the five available gears. To
engage AutoStick®, simply tap the shift lever to the right or left (+/-)
while in the DRIVE position, or tap one of the steering wheel-mounted
shift paddles (+/-). Tapping (-) to enter AutoStick® mode will downshift
the transmission to the next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
AutoStick® mode will retain the current gear. When AutoStick® is active,
the current transmission gear is displayed in the instrument cluster. In
AutoStick® mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is
manually selected by the driver (using the shift lever, or the shift
paddles), unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would result.
It will remain in the selected gear until another upshift or downshift is
chosen, except as described below:
• Normally, in AutoStick® mode, the transmission will automatically shift up when maximum engine speed is reached. If, h owever, AutoStick® is
engaged while in SPORT mode, the transmission will remain in the
selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached. The
transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver.
• The transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear.
• The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop. After a stop, the driver should manually upshift (+) the
transmission as the vehicle is accelerated.
• You can start out in first or second gear. Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. Starting out in second gear is helpful in
snowy or icy conditions.
• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low of a vehicle speed.
• Avoid using speed control when AutoStick® is engaged.

• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when AutoStick® isengaged.
• To disengage AutoStick® mode, hold the shift lever to the right or press and hold the (+) shift paddle until “D” is once again displayed in the
instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of the AutoStick® mode at any
time without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface.
The drive wheels could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid,
causing a collision or personal injury.
SELEC-TRACK™
• Selec-Track™ combines the capabilities of the vehicle control systems,along with driver input, to provide the best performance for all terrains.
• Rotate the mode control knob toselect the following Selec-Track™
positions:
• Sport – Dry weather, on-road
calibration. Performance based
tuning that provides a rear wheel
drive feel but with improved
handling and acceleration over a
two-wheel drive vehicle. The
active suspension system will be
in Semi Firm mode, and a green
flag will light up in the instrument
cluster.
• Snow – Tuning set for additional stability in inclement weather. Use on
and off road on loose traction surfaces such as snow.
• Auto – Fully automatic full time four-wheel drive operation can be used
on and off road. This position balances traction with seamless steering
feel to provide improved handling and acceleration over two-wheel
drive vehicles.
• Track – This position offers track road calibration for use on high
traction surfaces. Driveline is maximized for traction. Some binding may
be felt on less forgiving surfaces.
• To w – Use this mode for towing. Vehicle suspension will go to Firm

WARNING!
• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tirefailure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance.
Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never
overload them.
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in
severe cracking, component separation, or “blow out”. Over-
inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock. Objects on the
road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose
control of your vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can
affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in loss of
vehicle control.
WHEEL AND WHEEL TRIM CARE
• All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome platedwheels, should be cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to
prevent corrosion.
• To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal
polishes. Do not use oven cleaner. These products may damage the
wheel's protective finish. Avoid automatic car washes that use acidic
solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's protective
finish. Only MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.
