7 ELEC tRoNIC S hIFt 4WD SYStE m*
The electronic shift 4WD system allows you to
choose between 2WD, 4x4 AUTO, 4x4 HIGH or
4x4 LOW.
2h (2WD) provides power to the rear wheels only.
This is appropriate for normal, on-road driving on
dry pavement, providing optimal smoothness and
fuel economy at high speeds.
4A (4x4 AUto) provides electronically controlled
four-wheel drive with power delivered to the front
and rear wheels, as required, for increased traction.
This is appropriate for all on-road driving condtions,
including dry road surfaces, but is especially useful
on wet pavement, snow, dirt or gravel.
4h (4x4 h IGh) delivers extra gearing for maximum
power to all four wheels at reduced speeds. This
intended for use in situations such as deep sand,
steep grades or pulling heavy objects.
4L (4x4 L oW) mechanically locks into four-wheel
drive when extra power at reduced speeds is
required. Use this setting for off-road, low-speed
operation such as climbing steep grades, going
through deep sand or pulling a boat out of the water.
Note: Do not use 4H or 4L on dry, hard-surfaced
roads. Doing so can produce extra noise and
increase tire wear. For more complete details,
refer to the Four-Wheel Drive section of your
Owner’s Manual.

Hi LL ST aRT aSS iST
Hill start assist helps keep your vehicle stationary

To use:
1. Press and hold the brake pedal to bring your
vehicle to a complete standstill.
2. If the sensors detect that the vehicle is on a
slope, the hill start assist feature will be
activated automatically. 3.
When you remove your foot from the brake
pedal, the vehicle will remain on the slope
without rolling away for approximately
two or three seconds. This hold time will
automatically be extended if you are in the
process of driving off.
4. Drive off in a normal manner. The brakes will
be released automatically.

TRai LER SW aY COnTROL
Your vehicle is equipped with trailer sway control.
This control uses the vehicle’s AdvanceTrac with
RSC system to detect and help reduce trailer sway
by applying brake force at individual wheels and, if
necessary, reducing engine power. If this happens,
tRAILER SWAY REDUCE SPEED will appear
in the information display and the AdvanceTrac icon
will flash briefly. For more information, please
refer to your Owner’s Manual.
TRai LER BRaKE COnTROLLER*
The fully integrated trailer brake controller (TBC)
synchronizes vehicle and trailer brakes for seamless
braking (even with the heaviest loads) to provide
added driving control and confidence. Use the
GAIN adjustment buttons to increase or decrease
the braking feature’s power output to the trailer.
The GAIN setting is used to set the TBC for
specific towing conditions and should be changed
as towing conditions change. Changes to towing
conditions include trailer load, vehicle load, road
conditions and weather. After checking your trailer’s
brakes to make sure they are in good working order
and hooking up your trailer, you can adjust the
GAIN by:
1.
Pressing the GAIN + or GAIN - buttons to
increase or decrease the setting to the desired
starting point. A GAIN setting of 6.0 is a good
starting point for heavier loads.
2. Testing the adjusted GAIN setting again after
you’ve made adjustments. When testing:
a. In a traffic-free environment, tow the trailer
on a dry, level surface at a speed of 20-25
mph (30-40 km/h) and squeeze the manual
control lever completely.
b. If the trailer wheels lock up (the tires will
squeal), reduce the GAIN setting. If the
trailer wheels turn freely, increase the
GAIN setting.
c. The proper GAIN setting will be at the point
just below trailer wheel lock-up
Note: If towing a heavier trailer, trailer wheel lock-
up may not be attainable even with the maximum
GAIN setting of 10. ELECTROniC LOCK
