Air Bag System Components
NOTE:
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
monitors the internal circuits and intercon -
necting wiring associated with electrical Air
Bag System Components listed below:
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
Air Bag Warning Light
Steering Wheel and Column
Instrument Panel
Knee Impact Bolsters
Driver and Front Passenger Air Bags
Seat Belt Buckle Switch
Supplemental Side Air Bags
Front and Side Impact Sensors
Seat Belt Pretensioners
Seat Track Position Sensors
If A Deployment Occurs
The front air bags are designed to deflate
immediately after deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in
all collisions. This does not mean something
is wrong with the air bag system.
If you do have a collision which deploys the
air bags, any or all of the following may
occur:
The air bag material may sometimes cause
abrasions and/or skin reddening to the
occupants as the air bags deploy and
unfold. The abrasions are similar to fric-
tion rope burns or those you might get
sliding along a carpet or gymnasium floor.
They are not caused by contact with chem -
icals. They are not permanent and
normally heal quickly. However, if you
haven’t healed significantly within a few
days, or if you have any blistering, see your
doctor immediately.
WARNING!
Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do
not lean against the door or window. Sit
upright in the center of the seat.
Being too close to the Side Air Bags
during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could
lead to more severe injuries in a colli -
sion. The Side Air Bags work with your
seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.

If there are no fuel leaks or damage to the
vehicle electrical devices (e.g. headlights)
after an accident, reset the system by
following the procedure described below. If
you have any doubt, contact an authorized
dealer.
Enhanced Accident Response System Reset
Procedure
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident
Response System functions after an event,
the ignition switch must be changed from
ignition START or ON/RUN to ignition OFF.
Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in
the engine compartment and on the ground
near the engine compartment and fuel tank
before resetting the system and starting the
engine.
Maintaining Your Air Bag System
WARNING!
Modifications to any part of the air bag
system could cause it to fail when you need
it. You could be injured if the air bag
system is not there to protect you. Do not
modify the components or wiring,
including adding any kind of badges or
stickers to the steering wheel hub trim
cover or the upper passenger side of the
instrument panel. Do not modify the front
bumper, vehicle body structure, or add
aftermarket side steps or running boards.
It is dangerous to try to repair any part of
the air bag system yourself. Be sure to
tell anyone who works on your vehicle
that it has an air bag system.
Do not attempt to modify any part of your
air bag system. The air bag may inflate
accidentally or may not function properly
if modifications are made. Take your
vehicle to an authorized dealer for any air
bag system service. If your seat,
including your trim cover and cushion,
needs to be serviced in any way
(including removal or loosening/
tightening of seat attachment bolts),
take the vehicle to an authorized dealer.
Only manufacturer approved seat
accessories may be used. If it is
necessary to modify the air bag system
for persons with disabilities, contact an
authorized dealer.

tion. Do not pause with the transfer case in
N (Neutral). Once the shift is completed,
place the transmission into DRIVE.
NOTE:
Shifting into or out of 4L is possible with the
vehicle completely stopped; however, diffi-
culty may occur due to the mating teeth not
being properly aligned. Several attempts may
be required for clutch teeth alignment and
shift completion to occur. The preferred
method is with the vehicle rolling at 2 to
3 mph (3 to 5 km/h). Avoid attempting to
engage or disengage 4L with the vehicle
moving faster than 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).Trac-Lok Rear Axle — If Equipped
The Trac-Lok rear axle provides a constant
driving force to both rear wheels and reduces
wheel spin caused by the loss of traction at
one driving wheel. If traction differs between
the two rear wheels, the differential automat -
ically proportions the usable torque by
providing more torque to the wheel that has
traction.
Trac-Lok is especially helpful during slippery
driving conditions. With both rear wheels on
a slippery surface, a slight application of the
accelerator will supply maximum traction.
Axle Lock (Tru-Lok) — Rubicon Models
The AXLE LOCK switch is located on the instru -
ment panel (to the right of the steering column).
Axle Lock Switch Panel
This feature will only activate when the
following conditions are met:
Ignition in RUN position, vehicle in 4L
(Low) range.
Vehicle speed should be 10 mph (16 km/h)
or less.
Both right and left wheels on axle are at
the same speed.
To activate the system, push the AXLE LOCK
switch down to lock the rear axle only (the
“REAR ONLY” will illuminate), push the
switch up to lock the front axle and rear axle
WARNING!
Failure to engage a transfer case position
completely can cause transfer case
damage or loss of power and vehicle
control. You could have a collision. Do not
drive the vehicle unless the transfer case
is fully engaged.
WARNING!
On vehicles equipped with a limited-slip
differential, never run the engine with one
rear wheel off the ground. The vehicle may
drive through the rear wheel remaining on
the ground and cause you to lose control of
your vehicle.

(the “FRONT + REAR” will illuminate).
When the rear axle is locked, pushing the
bottom of switch again will lock or unlock the
front axle.
NOTE:
The indicator lights will flash until the axles
are fully locked or unlocked.
To unlock the axles, push the AXLE LOCK
OFF button.
Axle lock will disengage if the vehicle is
taken out of 4L (Low) range, or the ignition
switch is turned to the OFF position.
The axle lock disengages at speeds above
30 mph (48 km/h), and will automaticallyre-lock once vehicle speed is less than
10 mph (16 km/h).
Electronic Sway Bar Disconnect — If
Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an elec -
tronic disconnecting stabilizer/sway bar. This
system allows greater front suspension travel
in off-road situations. This system is controlled by the SWAY BAR
switch located on the instrument panel (to
the right of the steering column).
SWAY BAR Switch
Push the SWAY BAR switch to activate the
system. Push the switch again to deactivate
the system. The “Sway Bar Indicator Light”
(located in the instrument cluster) will illu -
minate when the bar is disconnected. The
“Sway Bar Indicator Light” will flash during
activation transition, or when activation
conditions are not met. The stabilizer/sway
bar should remain in on-road mode during
normal driving conditions. To disconnect the stabilizer/sway bar, shift to
either 4H or 4L and push the SWAY BAR
switch to obtain the off-road position. Refer
to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation” in this
section for further information. The “Sway
Bar Indicator Light” will flash until the stabi
-
lizer/sway bar has been fully disconnected.
WARNING!
Ensure the stabilizer/sway bar is
reconnected before driving on hard
surfaced roads or at speeds above 18 mph
(29 km/h); a disconnected stabilizer/sway
bar may contribute to the loss of vehicle
control, which could result in serious
injury. Under certain circumstances, the
front stabilizer/sway bar enhances vehicle
stability and assists with vehicle control.
The system monitors vehicle speed and
will attempt to reconnect the stabilizer/
sway bar at speeds over 18 mph (29 km/
h). This is indicated by a flashing or solid
“Sway Bar Indicator Light.” Once vehicle
speed is reduced below 14 mph (22 km/
h), the system will once again attempt to
return to off-road mode.
