8Sport :Sport Mode improves
vehicle handling and acceleration
on dry pavement. When active,
Sport Mode modifies steering
efforts, transmission shifting, AWD
torque, suspension tuning (when
properly equipped), and StabiliTrak/
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
settings. For vehicles equipped with
AWD, choosing Sport Mode also
engages AWD.
4AWD (AWD Only) : AWD Mode
provides drive torque to all four
wheels. Select AWD to improve
traction and control on slippery road
surfaces, such as gravel, sand, wet
pavement, snow, and ice. When in
AWD Mode, the AWD Mode
indicator will be on.
AWD is active in AWD, Sport, Tow/
Haul, and Off-Road Modes.
When using a compact spare tire on
an AWD vehicle, the system
automatically detects the compact
spare and reduces AWD
performance to protect the system.
To restore full AWD operation and
prevent excessive wear on the
system, replace the compact spare with a full-size tire as soon as
possible. See
Compact Spare Tire
0 320.
6Snow/Ice (FWD Only) : Snow/
Ice Mode improves vehicle
acceleration on snow and ice
covered roads by changing
accelerator pedal response.
_Tow/Haul : This feature can
assist when towing or hauling a
heavy load. Use this mode to assist
in maintaining desired vehicle
speeds when driving on downhill
grades by using the engine and
transmission. When active, Tow/
Haul Mode modifies transmission
shifting, steering effort, and Trailer
Sway Control. For AWD vehicles,
choosing Tow/Haul Mode also
engages AWD. See Driving
Characteristics and Towing Tips
0 229.
Automatic Engine Grade Braking
Automatic Engine Grade Braking
assists when driving downhill.
It maintains vehicle speed by
automatically implementing a shift
pattern that uses the engine and the transmission to slow the vehicle.
The system will automatically
command downshifts to reduce
vehicle speed. The normal shift
pattern will return once the vehicle
is on a low grade or when the
accelerator pedal is pressed.
While in the Electronic Range
Select (ERS) mode, grade braking
is deactivated, allowing the driver to
select a range and limiting the
highest gear available. Grade
braking is available for normal
driving and in Tow/Haul Mode.
See
Automatic Transmission 0187.
7Off-Road (AWD Only) : Use this
mode for off-road recreational
driving. When active, Off-Road
Mode modifies accelerator pedal
response, ABS, TCS, and the
StabiliTrak/ESC system. Choosing
Off-Road Mode also engages AWD.
