Voice Command Tips
• Speaking complete names (i.e; Call John Doe vs. Call John) will result in greatersystem accuracy.
• You can “link” commands together for faster results. Say “Call John Doe, mobile,” for example.
• If you are listening to available voice command options, you do not have to listen to the entire list. When you hear the command that you need, push the
button on the steering wheel, wait for the beep and say your command.
Changing The Volume
• Start a dialogue by pushing the Phone button, then say a command for
example - "Help".
• Use the radio VOLUME/MUTE rotary knob to adjust the volume to a comfortable level while the Uconnect system is speaking. Please note the volume setting for
Uconnect is different than the audio system.
NOTE:
To access help, push the Uconnect Phone button
on the steering wheel and say
"help." Push the Uconnect Phone Pickup button
or the VR buttonand say
"cancel" to cancel the help session.
Using Do Not Disturb
With Do Not Disturb, you can disable notifications from incoming calls and texts,
allowing you to keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel. For your
convenience there is a counter display to keep track of your missed calls and text
messages while you were using Do Not Disturb.
Do Not Disturb can automatically reply with a text message, a call or both, when
declining an incoming call and send it to voicemail.
Automatic reply messages can be:
• “I am driving right now, I will get back to you shortly.”
• Create a custom auto reply message up to 160 characters.
While in Do Not Disturb, Conference Call can be selected so you can still place a
second call without being interrupted by incoming calls.
NOTE:
• Only the beginning of your custom message will be seen on the touchscreen.
• Reply with text message is not compatible with iPhones.

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
1–SPEED FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4X4)
This feature provides on-demand Four-Wheel Drive (4X4) with no driver inputs or
additional driving skills required.
Under normal driving conditions, the front wheels provide most of the traction.
If the front wheels begin to lose traction,
power is shifted automatically to the rear
wheels.
NOTE:
On dry pavement under heavy throttle
input (where one may have wheel spin),
torque will be sent to the rear wheels to
improve vehicle launch and performance
characteristics.
2–SPEED FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4X4)
This electronically shifted Power Transfer Unit provides three mode positions:
• Four Wheel Drive High (4WD)
• Neutral (N)
• Four Wheel Drive Low (4WDLOW)
The 4X4 LOW range can be used when
additional traction is required to force the
front and rear wheels to rotate at the
same speed.
4X4 LOW is intended for loose, slippery
road surfaces only.

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).
Shifting Procedures
4X4 HI To 4X4 LOW
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 begin to flash and remain on solid 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.
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

SELEC-TERRAIN
Selec-Terrain 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 to select
the following Selec-Terrain positions:
•Auto — Fully automatic full time four-
wheel drive operation can be used on
and off road. Balances traction with
seamless steering feel to provide im-
proved handling and acceleration over
two-wheel drive vehicles.
• Snow — Tuning set for additional sta-
bility in inclement weather. Use on and
off road on loose traction surfaces such
as snow. When in SNOW mode (de-
pending on certain operating condi-
tions), the transmission may use sec-
ond gear (rather than first gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage.
• Sport — This mode alters the transmission's automatic shift schedule for sportier
driving. Upshift speeds are increased to make full use of available engine power.
• 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. Traction based
tuning with improved steer-ability for use on high traction off-road surfaces.
Activate the Hill Descent Control for steep downhill control. Use for low speed
obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc.
NOTE:
SPORT mode is not available when 4X4 LOW is selected.
