The heated steering wheel system is designed to
operate only when the surface temperature of the
steering wheel is below 68°F (20°C) .
Push the heated steering wheel switch to warm
the steering wheel after the engine starts. The
indicator light will come on.
If the surface temperature of the steering wheel is
below 68°F (20°C) , the system will heat the
steering wheel and cycle off and on to maintain a
temperature above 68°F (20°C) . The indicator
light will remain on as long as the system is on.Push the switch again to turn the heated steering
wheel system off manually. The indicator light will
go off. The switch will turn off automatically
30 minutes after activation, once this happens
the switch will need to be pressed again to restart
the cycle.
NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is above 68°F (20°C) when the switch
is turned on, the system will not heat the
steering wheel. This is not a malfunction.
The warning systems switch is used to turn on
and off the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
that is activated using the settings menu on the

WARNING
●Never rely solely on the hill descent
control system to control vehicle speed
when driving on steep downhill grades.
Always drive carefully when using the
hill descent control system and deceler-
ate the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal if necessary. Be especially
careful when driving on frozen, muddy
or extremely steep downhill roads. Fail-
ure to control vehicle speed may result
in a loss of control of the vehicle and
possible serious injury or death. ●
The hill descent control may not control
the vehicle speed on a hill under all load
or road conditions. Always be prepared
to depress the brake pedal to control
vehicle speed. Failure to do so may result
in a collision or serious personal injury.
CAUTION
When the hill descent control system op-
erates continuously for a long time, the
temperature of the brake pads may in-
crease and the hill descent control system
may be temporarily disabled (the indicator
light will blink) . If the indicator light does
not come on continuously after blinking,
stop using the system.
The hill descent control system is designed to
reduce driver workload when going down steep
hills. The hill descent control system helps to
control vehicle speed so the driver can concen-
trate on steering the vehicle.
To activate the hill descent control system: ● activate the 4H switch,
● the transmission shift lever must be in for-
ward or reverse gear,
● the hill descent control system switch must
be ON. The vehicle speed must be kept below 15 mph
(25 km/h).
The hill descent control indicator light will come
on when the system is activated. Also, the
stop/tail lights illuminate while the hill descent
control system applies the brakes to control ve-
hicle speed.
You may hear a noise from under the hood or feel
a vibration from the actuator when it is operating.
This is normal and indicates the HDC system is
working properly.
If the accelerator or brake pedal is depressed
while the hill descent control system is on, the
system will stop operating temporarily. As soon
as the accelerator or brake pedal is released, the
hill descent control system begins to function
again if the hill descent control operating condi-
tions are fulfilled.
The hill descent control indicator light blinks if the
switch is on and all conditions for system activa-
tion are not met or if the system becomes disen-
gaged for any reason.
To turn off the hill descent control system, push
the switch to the OFF position.
For additional information, refer to “Hill descent
control system on indicator light” in this section
and “Hill descent control system” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.

The E-Lock system can help provide added trac-
tion if the vehicle is stuck or becoming stuck.
To activate the E-Lock system:● the 4WD switch must be in the 4LO position
(4-wheel drive vehicles) ,
● the vehicle must be stopped or moving at
4 mph (7 km/h) or less, and
● the E-Lock system switch must be turned
ON. When the E-Lock system switch is turned ON,
the indicator light will flash until the system en-
gages. However, if all operation conditions listed
above are not met or the system becomes disen-
gaged, the indicator light will continue to flash.
The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) system is disabled
and the ABS light illuminates when the E-Lock
system is ON. Also, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system is disabled and the VDC light
illuminates when the E-Lock system is ON.
For additional information, refer to “Electronic
locking rear differential (E-Lock) system” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this manual for
further explanation and system limitations.
WARNING
●
Never leave the E-Lock system ON when
driving on paved or hard-surfaced
roads. Turning the vehicle may result in
the rear wheels slipping and result in an
accident and personal injury. After us-
ing the E-Lock system to free the ve-
hicle, turn the system OFF. ●
Use the rear differential lock only in an
emergency when it is not possible to
free a stuck vehicle even using 4LO.
Never use the E-Lock system on a slip-
pery road surface such as snow or ice
surface. Using the E-Lock system when
driving in these road conditions may
cause unexpected movement of the ve-
hicle during engine braking, accelerat-
ing or turning, which may result in an
accident and serious personal injury.
● Avoid quick starts while the E-Lock sys-
tem is in operation. Otherwise the
power train system parts could be
damaged.
● Observe the above warnings. Other-
wise, loss of normal steering control
may result This may result in an acci-
dent and serious personal injury.

CAUTION
●After using the E-Lock system, or during
normal driving, turn the switch OFF to
prevent possible damage to driveline
components from extended use.
● When the E-Lock system is in operation,
turning the vehicle becomes difficult.
This can be dangerous, especially at
high speeds. Doing so could damage
drivetrain components.
● Do not operate the E-Lock system when
the vehicle is turning or when one side
wheel is rotating. Otherwise, the power
train system parts could be damaged.
● The E-Lock system operates only when
the engine is running.
● In 4H mode, the E-Lock system does not
operate when the E-Lock system switch
is turned to the ON position. (The
E-Lock system indicator light will flash.)
● Observe the above cautions. Otherwise,
loss of normal steering may result. To use the outlets for devices that require 120v
power, place the ignition in the ON position and
push the power inverter switch.
The 400W or 150W on the switch will illuminate
according to the mode selected. Only the 150W
is available when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position and the vehicle is being driven.
For additional information, refer to “120v outlets”
in this section of the manual regarding using
devices that require the power inverter switch
activated.
CAUTION
●
Use power outlets with the engine run-
ning to avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.
● Do not attempt to use this while driving.
● Do not use double adapters or more
than one electrical accessory, doing so
could significantly drain the battery of
your vehicle.
