supplements for specific information about
equipment features, instructions for safe
driving and additional precautions to reduce
the risk of an accident or serious injury.
All-wheel drive system (if equipped)
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of four-wheel
drive vehicles. Although a four-wheel drive
vehicle may accelerate better than a
two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won't stop any faster than
two-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive at
a safe speed. A vehicle equipped with all-wheel drive has
the ability to use all four wheels to power
itself. This increases traction which may
enable you to safely drive over terrain and
road conditions that a conventional
two-wheel drive vehicle cannot. Power is
supplied to all four wheels through a transfer
case operation and drive mode selection.
See All-Wheel Drive (page 250). You should
become thoroughly familiar with this
information before you operate your vehicle.
Some limited All Wheel Drive (AWD) traction
may be provided if a temporary spare is
installed on one of the front wheels. If you
are in driving conditions where limited All
Wheel Drive (AWD) traction needed while a
temporary wheel is installed, it is
recommended the temporary spare be
installed on the front axle.
For all-wheel-drive vehicles, a spare tire of
a different size other than the tire provided
should never be used. A dissimilar spare tire
size; other than the spare tire provided or
major dissimilar tire sized between the front
and rear axles could cause the
all-wheel-drive system to stop functioning
and default to rear-wheel drive. How your vehicle differs from other
vehicles
Sport utility vehicles and trucks can differ
from some other vehicles in a few noticeable
ways. Your vehicle could be:
•
Higher - to allow higher load carrying
capacity and to allow it to travel over
rough terrain without getting hung up or
damaging underbody components.
• Shorter - to give it the capability to
approach inclines and drive over the
crest of a hill without getting hung up or
damaging underbody components. All
other things held equal, a shorter
wheelbase could make your vehicle
quicker to respond to steering inputs
than a vehicle with a longer wheelbase.
• Narrower - to provide greater
maneuverability in tight spaces,
particularly in off-road use.

WARNING: Never place anything
between the vehicle jack and the ground. WARNING:
Park your vehicle so that
you do not obstruct the flow of traffic or
place yourself in any danger and set up a
warning triangle. WARNING: Do not attempt to change
a tire on the side of the vehicle close to
moving traffic. Pull far enough off the road
to avoid the danger of being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel.
Note: Passengers should not remain in your
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Note: Jack at the specified locations to avoid
damage to the vehicle. Note:
No maintenance or additional
lubrication of your jack is required over the
service life of your vehicle.
1. Park on a level surface, set the parking brake and switch on the hazard flashers.
2. Apply the parking brake, place the transmission in park (P) and turn the
engine off.
3. If your vehicle has air suspension, use the touch screen to switch on the Air
Suspension Service Mode prior to
jacking. 4.
Block the wheel diagonally opposite the
flat tire. For example, if the left front tire
is flat, block the right rear wheel.

14. Remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench.
15. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward.
16. Install the lug nuts snug against the hub. Do not fully tighten the lug nuts
until the vehicle is lowered.
17. Turn the wrench handle counterclockwise to lower the vehicle
completely. 18. Remove the jack and fully tighten the
lug nuts in the order shown. See
Technical Specifications (page 442).
19. If you enabled the Air Suspension Service Mode, switch the mode off prior
to driving.
20. Remove the wheel blocks. Stowing the jack
1. To store the folded wrench on the jack,
engage the bracket of the jack base and
the lug wrench pin, swing the wrench
upwards, adjust jack height until the
wrench hook engages the hole on jack.
Tighten the hex nut clockwise by hand
until secure.
2. Place the jack in the spare tire compartment, install the wing nut and
tighten clockwise by hand until secure.
Stowing the flat tire
You cannot store the full-sized road wheel
in the temporary spare tire well.
