AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist
in placing the vehicle in PARK should the
situations on the following pages occur. It is
a back up system and should not be relied
upon as the primary method by which the
driver shifts the vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will
engage are outlined on the following pages. If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver turns
off the engine, the vehicle may AutoPark.
AutoPark will engage when all of these
conditions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with an 8-speed trans-
mission
Driver’s door is ajar or in conditions where
driver door is removed an additional
trigger would be if the driver is off the seat
(seat pad sensor detects driver missing).
Vehicle is not in PARK
Vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h)
Ignition switched from RUN to OFF
NOTE:
For Keyless Enter-N-Go equipped vehicles,
The engine will turn off and the ignition
switch will change to ACC mode. After
30 minutes the ignition switches to OFF
automatically, unless the driver turns the
ignition switch OFF.
WARNING!
Driver inattention could lead to failure to
place the vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO
A VISUAL CHECK that your vehicle is in
PARK by verifying that a solid (not
blinking) “P” is indicated in the instru -
ment cluster display and on the gear
selector. If the "P" indicator is blinking,
your vehicle is not in PARK. As an added
precaution, always apply the parking
brake when exiting the vehicle.
AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is
not designed to replace the need to shift
your vehicle into PARK. It is a back up
system and should not be relied upon as
the primary method by which the driver
shifts the vehicle into PARK.

NORMAL STARTING —
DIESEL ENGINE
1. The gear selector must be in theNEUTRAL or PARK position before you
can start the engine.
2. Place the ignition in the ON position.
3. Watch for the “Wait To Start Light” in the instrument cluster. Refer to “Instrument
Cluster” in “Getting To Know Your Instru -
ment Panel” for further review. It will
glow for two to ten seconds or more,
depending on engine temperature. When
the “Wait To Start Light” goes out, the
engine is ready to start.
4. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for approximately 30 seconds before driving.
This allows oil to circulate and lubricate
the turbocharger. Tip Start Feature:

5.
Do not press the accelerator. Cycle the igni -
tion to the START position and then release
it. The starter motor will continue to run,
and it will automatically disengage when
the engine is running. If the engine fails to
start, the starter will disengage automati -
cally in 25 seconds. If this occurs, cycle
the ignition to the LOCK position, wait 25
to 30 seconds, then repeat the “Normal
Starting” procedure.

NOTE:
The starter motor may run up to 30 seconds
in very cold conditions until the engine is
started. The starter can be disengaged by
cycling the ignition to the OFF position, if
required.
Diesel Engine Warm-Up
Avoid full throttle operation when the engine
is cold. When starting a cold engine, bring
the engine up to operating speed slowly to
allow the oil pressure to stabilize as the
engine warms up.
NOTE:
High-speed, no-load running of a cold engine
can result in excessive white smoke and poor
engine performance. No-load engine speeds
should be kept under 1,200 RPM during the
warm-up period, especially in cold, ambient
temperature conditions.
If temperatures are below 32°F (0°C),
operate the engine at moderate speeds for
5 minutes before full loads are applied.

Eight–Speed Automatic Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with a fuel efficient
8 speed transmission. The gear selector is
located in the center console.Transmission Gear Selector
The transmission gear selector provides
PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE and
MANUAL (AutoStick) shift positions. Manual
shifts can be made using the AutoStick shift
control. Toggling the gear selector forward (-)
or rearward (+) while in the MANUAL (Auto -
Stick) position (beside the DRIVE position)
will manually select the transmission gear,
and will display the current gear in the
instrument cluster. Refer to "AutoStick" in
this section for further information. NOTE:
If the gear selector cannot be moved to the
PARK, REVERSE, or NEUTRAL position
(when pushed forward), it is probably in the
AutoStick (+/-) position (beside the DRIVE
position). In AutoStick mode, the transmis
-
sion gear (1, 2, 3, etc.) is displayed in the
instrument cluster. Move the gear selector to
the right (into the DRIVE [D] position) for
access to PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL.
AutoStick
AutoStick is a driver-interactive transmission
feature providing manual shift control, giving
you more control of the vehicle. AutoStick
allows you to maximize engine braking, elim -
inate undesirable upshifts and downshifts,
and improve overall vehicle performance.
This system can also provide you with more
control during passing, city driving, cold slip -
pery conditions, mountain driving, trailer
towing, and many other situations. Operation

To activate AutoStick mode, move the gear
selector into the MANUAL (M) position (beside
the DRIVE position). The current transmission
gear will be displayed in the instrument cluster.
In AutoStick mode, you can use the gear
selector (in the MANUAL position) to manually
shift the transmission. Tapping the gear
selector forward (-) while in the MANUAL (M)
position will downshift the transmission to the
next lower gear. Tapping the selector rearward
(+) will command an upshift.

In AutoStick mode, the transmission will
shift up or down when (+/-) is manually
selected by the driver, unless an engine
lugging or overspeed condition would result.
It will remain in the selected gear until
another upshift or downshift is chosen,
except as described below.
The transmission will automatically down
-
shift as the vehicle slows (to prevent
engine lugging) and will display the
current gear.

4H
Four-Wheel Drive High Range — This range
maximizes torque to the front driveshaft,
forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at
the same speed. This range provides addi-
tional traction for loose, slippery road
surfaces only.
NEUTRAL (N)
Neutral — This range disengages both the
front and rear driveshafts from the power -
train. To be used for flat towing behind
another vehicle.
Refer to “Recreational Towing” in this
chapter for further information. 4L
Four-Wheel Drive Low Range — This range
provides low speed four-wheel drive. It maxi
-
mizes torque to the front driveshaft, forcing
the front and rear wheels to rotate at the
same speed. This range provides additional
traction and maximum pulling power for
loose, slippery road surfaces only. Do not
exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
The transfer case is intended to be driven in
the 2H position for normal street and
highway conditions, such as hard-surfaced
roads.
In the event that additional traction is
required, the transfer case 4H and 4L posi -
tions can be used to lock the front and rear
driveshafts together, forcing the front and
rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. The
4H and 4L positions are intended for loose,
slippery road surfaces only and not intended
for normal driving. Driving in the 4H and 4L
positions on hard-surfaced roads will cause
increased tire wear and damage to the drive -
line components. Refer to “Shifting Proce -
dures” in this section for further information
on shifting into 4H or 4L. The instrument cluster alerts the driver that
the vehicle is in four-wheel drive, and the
front and rear driveshafts are locked
together. The light will illuminate when the
transfer case is shifted into the 4H position.
When operating your vehicle in 4L, the
engine speed will be approximately three
times (four times for Rubicon models) that of
the 2H or 4H positions at a given road speed.
Take care not to overspeed the engine.
Proper operation of four-wheel drive vehicles
depends on tires of equal size, type, and
circumference on each wheel. Any difference
will adversely affect shifting and cause
damage to the transfer case.
Because four-wheel drive provides improved
traction, there is a tendency to exceed safe
turning and stopping speeds. Do not go
faster than road conditions permit.
Shifting Procedures
2H To 4H Or 4H To 2H
Shifting between 2H and 4H can be made
with the vehicle stopped or in motion. The
preferred shifting speed would be 0 to
45 mph (72 km/h). With the vehicle in
motion, the transfer case will engage/disen
-
WARNING!
You or others could be injured or killed if
you leave the vehicle unattended with the
transfer case in the NEUTRAL (N) position
without first fully engaging the parking
brake. The transfer case NEUTRAL (N)
position disengages both the front and rear
driveshafts from the powertrain, and will
allow the vehicle to roll, even if the
automatic transmission is in PARK. The
parking brake should always be applied
when the driver is not in the vehicle.

Shifting Procedures
2H To 4H Auto Or 4H Auto To 2H
Shifting between 2H and 4H Auto can be
made with the vehicle stopped or in motion.
The preferred shifting speed would be 0 to
45 mph (72 km/h). With the vehicle in
motion, the transfer case will engage/disen
-
gage faster if you momentarily release the
accelerator pedal after completing the shift.
Do not accelerate while shifting the transfer
case. Apply a constant force when shifting
the transfer case lever.
2H/4H Auto To 4H Part Time Or 4H Part Time To
2H/4H Auto
Shifting between 2H/4H AUTO to 4H PART
TIME can be made with the vehicle stopped
or in motion. The preferred shifting speed
would be 0 to 45 mph (72 km/h). With the
vehicle in motion, the transfer case will
engage/disengage faster if you momentarily
release the accelerator pedal after
completing the shift. Do not accelerate while shifting the transfer case. Apply a constant
force when shifting the transfer case lever.
NOTE:
Do not attempt to make a shift while only
the front or rear wheels are spinning. The
front and rear driveshaft speeds must be
equal for the shift to take place. Shifting
while only the front or rear wheels are
spinning can cause damage to the transfer
case.
Delayed shifts out of four-wheel drive may
be experienced due to uneven tire wear,
low or uneven tire pressures, excessive
vehicle loading, or cold temperatures.
Shifting effort will increase with speed,
this is normal.
During cold weather, you may experience
increased effort in shifting until the transfer
case fluid warms up. This is normal.
4H Part Time/4H Auto To 4L Or 4L To 4H Part Time/
4H Auto
With the vehicle rolling at 2 to 3 mph (3 to
5 km/h), shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL (N). While the vehicle is coasting
at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h), shift the
transfer case lever firmly to the desired posi -

(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.
