ALL-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
Single-Speed Operating Instructions/Precautions
•
This system contains a single-speed (HI range only) transfer case, which provides conve-
nient 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 posi-
tion 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 frequenttransmission 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 illumi-
nate 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.
