OFF-ROAD MODE
Off-Road Mode changes the antilock brake, traction control, and stabilit\
y control
calibrations for different conditions. It also alters throttle progressi\
on and transmis-sion shifts.
In Off-Road Mode:
• The locking rear axle does not have a speed limitation. The rear axle wi\
ll remain locked up to the maximum vehicle speed.
• The StabiliTrak electronic stability control system is adjusted for off-\
road performance.
• Powertrain calibrations are optimized for off-road use.
OFF-ROAD MODE CONTROL
Press the Off-Road Mode control
button on the center of the transfer case knob to turn Off-Road Mode on or off.
The Off-Road Mode symbol on the instru-ment cluster will illuminate when Off-Road Mode is active.
Note: Off-Road Mode is calibrated for off-road driving conditions. It should not be used when driving on pavement.
SHIFTING INTO OR OUT OF 4-WHEEL DRIVE
To shift into or out of 4-wheel drive, rotate the knob to the desired po\
sition (2 HI, AUTO, 4 HI, 4 LO, or Neutral). Line up the indicator mark on the knob w\
ith the indicator light to command the shift.
The indicator light flashes while the shift is in progress and remains\
illuminated when the shift is complete. If the shift cannot be completed, the transfer ca\
se returns to the last chosen setting. The current 4-wheel drive status is displayed o\
n the Driver Information Center.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.

LOCKING REAR AXLE
Lock the rear axle to gain additional
traction from the rear wheels when
driving in off-road conditions, on steep hills and on uneven terrain.
With the vehicle moving less than 25 mph, press the Locking Rear Axle switch to lock or unlock the rear axle.
The rear axle is locked when the
indicator light stops flashing and remains illuminated.
Note: The locking rear axle will disengage when vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph unless Off-Road Mode is active.
LOCKING FRONT AXLE
Lock the front axle to gain additional traction from the front wheels wh\
en driving at low speed in off-road conditions.
1. With the vehicle stopped or moving less than 3 mph and the transmission \
in Neutral, shift into 4WD LO. Shift the transmission into gear when the indicator l\
ight on the transfer case knob stops flashing.
2. With the vehicle moving less than 25 mph, press the Locking Rear Axle switch to lock the rear axle. The rear axle must be locked before the front axle c\
an be locked.
3. With the vehicle moving less than 25 mph, press the Locking Front Axle switch to lock or unlock the front axle.
The front axle is locked when the indicator light stops flashing and r\
emains illuminated. Locking the front axle also disables Hill Descent Control and the Antilo\
ck Brake System, which will cause the warning light to illuminate.
Note: The locking front axle will disengage when vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph or the transfer case is shifted out of 4WD LO. Do not drive the vehicle on pavement with the front or rear axle locked. Do not try to lock the front or rear axle while the vehicle is stuck and the tires are spinning. This may damage the vehicle.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.
