Shifting To or From 4L - 4X4 LOW
Note:4L mode is not intended for use on drypavement.
1. Bring the vehicle to a rolling speed of3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
2. Place the gearshift in neutral (N).
3. Rotate the drive mode knob to desiredmode.
The information display shows a messageindicating a 4X4 shift is in progress. Theinformation display shows the system modeselected. If any of the previous shiftconditions are not present, the shift does notoccur and the information display shows theinformation guiding the driver through theproper shifting procedures. If the previousconditions are not satisfied in 30 seconds,the system reverts back to the previous 4WDmode or drive mode.
If Shift Delayed Pull Forward displays in theinformation display, transfer case gear toothblockage is present. To alleviate thiscondition, place the transmission in a forwardgear, move the vehicle forwardapproximately 5 ft (2 m), and shift thetransmission back to neutral (N) to allow thetransfer case to complete the range shift.
Operating 4WD Vehicles With Spareor Mismatched Tires
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the size of thespare tire can affect the 4X4 system. If thereis a significant difference between the sizeof the spare tire and the remaining tires, youmay have limited four-wheel drivefunctionality.
When driving with the full-size dissimilarspare wheel and tire assembly, it isrecommended that you do not:
•Exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) with a 4WDmode turned on.
•Turn on a 4WD mode unless the vehicleis stationary.
•Use a 4WD mode on dry pavement.
Use of a dissimilar spare wheel and tireassembly may lead to impairment of thefollowing:
•Comfort and noise.
•Winter weather driving capability.
•Wet driving capability.
•Four-wheel drive capability.
How Your Vehicle Differs From OtherVehicles
WARNING: Vehicles with a highercenter of gravity (utility and four-wheeldrive vehicles) handle differently thanvehicles with a lower center of gravity(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,excessive speed and abrupt steering inthese vehicles. Failure to drive cautiouslyincreases the risk of losing control of yourvehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.

LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL (IF
EQUIPPED)
The Electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD)system directs torque, enabling the vehicleto drive over terrain and road conditions thata conventional axle cannot. The system isactive at all times and requires no input fromthe driver.
Note:If your vehicle is not at optimaloperating conditions or a system fault ispresent, a warning may be displayed in theinstrument cluster. Depending on thewarning, your vehicle may need to beserviced. You can find more informationregarding the system information messagesin the Information Displays chapter. SeeInformation Messages (page 125).
Spare Tire
If your vehicle has an Electronic Limited SlipDifferential, do not use a spare tire of adifferent size than the tire provided. If a sparetire is installed, a message may appear,indicating the system has disabledautomatically or reduced function to prevent
system overheat and damage. It isrecommended to reinstall the repaired orreplaced road tire as soon as possible. Whenthe road tire is replaced, the system willresume normal operation on the next keycycle.
Trailer Towing
The Electronic Limited Slip Differentialenhances vehicle stability during trailer towoperation. During high demand traileringevents, such as steep slopes, high speedsor with a spare tire, the system may providea warning in the instrument cluster andreduce function or enter a temporarilydisabled state. To resume normal function,stop the vehicle in a safe location and allowthe unit to adequately cool. Once the systemhas reached normal operating temperatures,system function will be restored and theElectronic Limited Slip Differential Restoredmessage will be displayed.

HILL START ASSIST
WARNING: The system does notreplace the parking brake. When you leaveyour vehicle, always apply the parkingbrake and shift the transmission into park(P) for automatic transmission or first gearfor manual transmission.
WARNING: You must remain in yourvehicle when the system turns on. At alltimes, you are responsible for controllingyour vehicle, supervising the system andintervening, if required. Failure to take caremay result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, serious personal injury or death.
Note:If the engine is revved excessively, orif a malfunction is detected, the system willbe deactivated.
The system makes it easier to pull awaywhen your vehicle is on a slope without theneed to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicle willremain stationary on the slope for two tothree seconds after you release the brakepedal. This allows you time to move yourfoot from the brake to the accelerator pedal. The brakes release automatically when theengine has sufficient torque to prevent yourvehicle from rolling down the grade. This isan advantage when pulling away on a slope,for example from a car park ramp, trafficlights or when reversing uphill into a parkingspace.
The system will activate automatically on anyslope that will cause significant vehiclerollback. For vehicles with a manualtransmission, you can switch this feature offusing the information display. SeeInformation Displays (page 120). The systemwill remain on or off depending on how itwas last set.
Note:There is no warning lamp to indicatethe system is either on or off.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with AutoHold, Hill Start Assist will not be availablewhile Auto Hold is active.
Using Hill Start Assist
1. Bring your vehicle to a completestandstill. Keep the brake pedal pressedand select an uphill gear (for example,drive (D) or first (1) when facing uphill orreverse (R) when facing downhill).
2. If the sensors detect that your vehicle ison a slope, the system will activateautomatically.
3. When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal, your vehicle will remain onthe slope without rolling away for abouttwo or three seconds. This hold time willautomatically be extended if you are inthe process of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. Thebrakes will release automatically.
Switching the System On and Off
You can switch this feature on or off if yourvehicle is equipped with a manualtransmission and an information display. SeeGeneral Information (page 120). The systemremembers the last setting when you startyour vehicle.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid drivewheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the systemapplies the brakes to individual wheels and,when needed, reduces engine power at thesame time. If the wheels spin whenaccelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,the system reduces engine power in orderto increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING: The stability and tractioncontrol light illuminates steadily if thesystem detects a failure. Make sure youdid not manually disable the tractioncontrol system using the informationdisplay controls or the switch. If the stabilitycontrol and traction control light is still
illuminating steadily, have the systemserviced by an authorized dealerimmediately. Operating your vehicle withthe traction control disabled could lead toan increased risk of loss of vehicle control,vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
The system automatically turns on each timeyou switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,switching traction control off may bebeneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note:When you switch traction control off,stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System On and Off
You can switch traction control on and offthrough the information display controls. SeeGeneral Information (page 120).
When you switch the system off, a messageand an illuminated icon appear on theinstrument cluster.
Switch traction control on again to return thesystem to normal operations.
Note:Your vehicle may have MyKeyrestrictions regarding this feature. SeePrinciple of Operation (page 67).
System Indicator Lights and Messages
The stability and traction controllight temporarily illuminates onengine start-up and flashes:
•When a driving condition activates eitherof the systems.
•If a problem occurs in either of thesystems.
The stability and traction controloff light temporarily illuminates onengine start-up and stays on whenyou switch the traction control system off.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING: Hill descent controlcannot control descent in all surfaceconditions and circumstances, such as iceor extremely steep grades. Hill descentcontrol is a driver assist system and cannotsubstitute for good judgment by the driver.Failure to do so may result in loss ofvehicle control, crash or serious injury.
WARNING: Hill descent control doesnot provide hill hold at zero miles per hour(0 kilometers per hour). When stopped,you must apply the parking brake or placethe vehicle in P (Park), or it may roll away.
Hill descent control allows you to set andmaintain vehicle speed while descendingsteep grades in various surface conditions.
Hill descent control can maintain vehiclespeeds on downhill grades between 2 mph(3 km/h) and 12 mph (20 km/h). Above 20mph (32 km/h), the system remains armed,but you cannot use the system to set ormaintain the descent speed.
Hill descent control requires a cooling downinterval after a period of sustained use. Theamount of time that the feature can remainactive before cooling varies with conditions.The system provides a warning in themessage center and a tone sounds whenthe system is about to disengage for cooling.At this time, manually apply the brakes asneeded to maintain descent speed.
USING HILL DESCENT CONTROL
You can switch the hill descentcontrol on and off through theinformation display.
To increase descent speed, press theaccelerator pedal until you reach the desiredspeed. To decrease descent speed, pressthe brake pedal until you reach the desiredspeed.
Whether accelerating or decelerating, onceyou reach the desired descent speed,remove your feet from the pedals and hilldescent control maintains the chosen vehiclespeed.
Note:You may observe noise from the ABSpump motor during hill descent controloperation. This is a normal characteristic ofthe ABS and should be no reason forconcern.
Hill Descent Modes
•At speeds between 2 mph (3 km/h) and20 mph (32 km/h): Your vehicle maintainsthe speed you desire while in this mode.
•At speeds between 20 mph (32 km/h)and 40 mph (64 km/h): Your vehicle doesnot maintain the speed you desire andyou cannot set your descent speed.
•At speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h): Youneed to switch this feature back on touse.
