turns off, release the NEUTRAL (N)
button.
8. After the NEUTRAL (N) button has been
released, the transfer case will shift to the
position indicated by the selector switch.
Quadra-Drive II System — If Equipped
The optional Quadra-Drive II System features
two torque transfer couplings. The couplings
include an Electronic Limited-Slip Differen-
tial (ELSD) rear axle and the Quadra-Trac II
transfer case. The optional ELSD axle is fully
automatic and requires no driver input to
operate. Under normal driving conditions,
the unit functions as a standard axle, balanc-
ing torque evenly between left and rightwheels. With a traction difference between
left and right wheels, the coupling will sense
a speed difference. As one wheel begins to
spin faster than the other, torque will auto-
matically transfer from the wheel that has
less traction, to the wheel that has traction.
While the transfer case and axle coupling
differ in design, their operation is similar.
Follow the Quadra-Trac II transfer case shift-
ing information, preceding this section, for
shifting this system.
QUADRA-LIFT — IF
EQUIPPED
Description
The Quadra-Lift air suspension system pro-
vides full time load leveling capability along
with the benefit of vehicle height adjustment
by the push of a button. The vehicle will
automatically raise and lower the ride height
to adapt to the appropriate driving condi-
tions. At higher speeds, the vehicle will lower
to an aerodynamic ride height and when op-
erating in off-road modes, the vehicle will
raise the ride height accordingly. The buttonsnear the terrain switch in the center console
area can be used to set preferred ride height
to match the appropriate conditions.
•Normal Ride Height (NRH)– This is the stan-
dard position of the suspension and is
meant for normal driving.

Selec-Terrain setting by normal use of the air
suspension buttons. Refer to “Selec-Terrain”
in “Starting And Operating” for further infor-
mation.
The system requires that the engine be run-
ning for all changes. When lowering the ve-
hicle all of the doors, including the liftgate,
must be closed. If a door is opened at any
time while the vehicle is lowering the change
will not be completed until the open door(s)
is/are closed.
The Quadra-Lift air suspension system uses a
lifting and lowering pattern which keeps the
headlights from incorrectly shining into on-
coming traffic. When raising the vehicle, the
rear of the vehicle will move up first and then
the front. When lowering the vehicle, the
front will move down first and then the rear.
After the engine is turned off, it may be
noticed that the air suspension system oper-
ates briefly, this is normal. The system is
correcting the position of the vehicle to en-
sure a proper appearance.To assist with changing a spare tire, the
Quadra-Lift air suspension system has a fea-
ture which allows the automatic leveling to be
disabled. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
For further information refer to “Driving Tips”
in “Starting And Operating” in the Owner’s
Manual.
NOTE:
If equipped with a touch screen radio all
enabling/disabling of air suspension features
must be done through the radio. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for fur-
ther information.
WARNING!
The air suspension system uses a high
pressure volume of air to operate the sys-
tem. To avoid personal injury or damage to
the system, see your authorized dealer for
service.
Air Suspension Modes
The Air Suspension system has multiple modes
to protect the system in unique situations:
Tire/Jack Mode
To assist with changing a spare tire, the air
suspension system has a feature which allows
the automatic leveling to be disabled. Refer
to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for
further information.
NOTE:
This mode is intended to be enabled with
engine running.
Auto Entry/Exit Mode
To assist in entering and exiting the vehicle,
the air suspension system has a feature
which automatically lowers the vehicle to
entry/exit ride height. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation.
NOTE:
This mode is intended to be enabled with
engine running.

• Tire pressure:
– 40 psi (276 kpa) hot, recommend
32 psi (221 kpa) front, 30 psi
(207 kpa) rear cold
NOTE:
It is recommended that you target 40 psi
(276 kpa) Hot Tire Pressure at the conclusion
of each track session. Starting at 32 psi
(221 kpa) Front & 30 psi (207 kpa) Rear
Cold and adjusting based on ambient & track
conditions is recommended. Tire pressure
can be monitored via the instrument cluster
display and can assist with adjustments.
Track burnishing your brakes:
To avoid “green lining fade” during track use,
the brake pads and rotors must have a ther-
mal burnish for factory installed components
or when new brake friction components are
installed:
1. Use one track session to burnish brakes
by driving at 75% speed. Brake at ap-
proximately 0.60-0.80g maximum with-
out ABS intervention.2. Lap the track in this manner until you
start smelling the brakes. Continue for
another ½ lap at speed, then do a two lap
cool down with minimal brake applies.
Make sure the brakes are not smoking. If
they are, do another cool down lap.
3. Do not continue for more than one full
burnishing lap after you start smelling the
brakes. Do not get them smoking heavily.
This will get them too hot and affect their
life negatively in future track use.
4. Allow vehicle to sit and cool in the pad-
dock for at least 30 min. If an infrared
thermal gun is available, allow rotors to
cool to 200°F (93.3°C) before going back
out.
5. There should be a thin, ash layer when
inspecting the pads installed in the cali-
per. Having the ash layer go more than
half the thickness of the pad material
indicates too aggressive of a burnish.
6. Sometimes, a second burnish session is
required. If the pads start smelling in the
next track session, reduce speed and
braking decel to burnish targets and fol-
low step 2-4.7. New pads installed on old rotors still need
to be burnished. New rotors installed with
old pads should be burnished at the track
or street driven for 300 city miles to
develop an adequate lining transfer layer
on the rotor surface prior to track use.
8. Rotors that pulsate during track use
should be replaced. Resurfacing of the
rotors is not recommended, as it removes
mass from the rotor, reducing its thermal
capacity. Resurfacing also thins the rotor
cheek, making it less robust and increas-
ing the likelihood of pulsation in further
track use.
SPEED CONTROL — IF
EQUIPPED
When engaged, the Speed Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than
20 mph (32 km/h).
The Speed Control buttons are located on the
right side of the steering wheel.

the set speed, the brake system will auto-
matically slow the vehicle.
• The ACC system applies the brake down to
a full stop when following a target vehicle.
If an ACC host vehicle follows a target
vehicle to a standstill, the host vehicle will
release the vehicle brakes two seconds af-
ter coming to a full stop.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when
driving up hill and down hill. However, a
slight speed change on moderate hills is
normal. In addition, downshifting may oc-
cur while climbing uphill or descending
