WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming theuniversal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming
the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled
and can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.

The NEUTRAL position allows vehicles with 2-speed Four-Wheel Drive to be flat
towed (with all wheels on the ground) without damaging the drivetrain. Refer to
“Recreational Towing” for instructions on shifting into and out of NEUTRAL.
NOTE:
In 4X4 LOW the engine speed is approximately three times that of the normal driving
mode at a given road speed. Take care not to overspeed the engine and do not exceed
25 mph (40 km/h).

If shift conditions/interlocks are not met a message will flash from the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Driver Information Display (DID) with instructions
on how to complete the requested shift. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Driver Information Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” on the DVD for further information.
4X4 LOW To 4X4 HI
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON
position or the engine running, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL, and press the
“4WD LOW” button once. The “4WD LOW” indicator light in the instrument cluster
will flash and go out when the shift is complete.
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met a message will flash from the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Driver Information Display (DID) with instructions
on how to complete the requested shift. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Driver Information Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” on the DVD for further information.

REAR ELECTRONIC LOCKER (E-LOCKER) SYSTEM
The Rear E-Locker System features a mechanical locking rear differential to provide
better traction in the 4WD LOW position. The “REAR LOCK” button is on the
Selec-Terrain Knob.
Activating The Rear E-Locker
To activate the Rear E-Locker System, the following conditions must be met:
• The 4WD system must be in 4WD LOW.
• The ignition switch in the ON position or the engine running.
• Vehicle speed must be below 15 MPH (24 km/h).
• To engage Rear E-Locker, push the REAR LOCK button once.
Deactivating The Rear E-Locker System
To deactivate the Rear E-Locker System, the following conditions must be met:
• Rear E-Locker must be engaged, and the REAR LOCK indicator light on.
• The ignition switch in the ON position or the engine running.
• To disengage Rear E-Locker , push the REAR LOCK button once.
NOTE:
• It may also be necessary to drive slowly steering back and forth to completeengagement and disengagement of the E- Locker.
• When engaging Rear E-Locker, the indicator lights in the instrument cluster and on the REAR LOCK button will begin to flash. When the shift is complete the REAR
LOCK indicator lights will remain on.
• When disengaging Rear E-Locker, the indicator lights in the instrument cluster and on the REAR LOCK button will begin to flash. When the shift is complete the
REAR LOCK indicator lights will remain off.
• Shifting into or out of Rear E-Locker is possible with the vehicle completely stopped; however, difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch teeth alignment and
shift completion to occur. The preferred method is for the vehicle to be rolling,
below 15 MPH (24 km/h), while including right and left steering maneuvers to
allow for the clutch teeth to align.
• The Rear E-Locker System must be disengaged prior to taking the vehicle out of 4X4 LOW range. If 4X4 LOW shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a message will
flash from the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Driver Information
Display with instructions on how to complete the requested shift.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
– Low Fuel Warning Light
This warning light indicates when the fuel level reaches approximately 2.0 gal (7.8 L).
This light will turn on and a single chime will sound.
- Charging System Light
This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system
light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the
charging system.
We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop
the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four
minutes when this light turns on.
We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). The light will turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position and may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock
portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However, the
conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the BRAKE warning light
is not on.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
163

If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to restore
the benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON/RUN position, have the light inspected by an authorized
dealer.
- Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch
is first turned to the ON/RUN position. If the light is either not on during starting, stays
on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon
as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know Before Starting Your
Vehicle” in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.
- 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 the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever/gear selector
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.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) which display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure EVIC or DID
display illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
