ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(IF EQUIPPED) WARNING:
Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.
210
Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First-Printing Starting and Stopping the Engine

WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock. WARNING:
Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power cable
and may cause an electrical short resulting
in fire, injury and property damage.
Note: The heater is most effective when
outdoor temperatures are below
0°F (-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by warming
the engine coolant. This allows the climate
control system to respond quickly. The
equipment includes a heater element,
installed in the engine block and a wire
harness. You can connect the system to a
grounded 120-volt AC electrical source. We recommend that you do the following for
a safe and correct operation:
•
Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by Underwriter’ s
Laboratory (UL) or Canadian Standards
Association (CSA). This extension cord
must be suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
• Do not use multiple extension cords.
• Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and heater cord plug
connections are free and clear of water.
This could cause an electric shock or fire.
• If the block heater cord is under the
hood, Do Not remove the wiring from its
original location. Do Not close the hood
on the extension wiring.
• Make sure your vehicle is parked in a
clean area, clear of combustibles. •
Make sure the heater, heater cord and
extension cord are firmly connected.
• Check for heat anywhere in the electrical
hookup once the system has been
operating for approximately 30 minutes.
• Make sure the system is unplugged and
properly stowed before starting and
driving your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs of the
block heater cord plug when not in use.
• Make sure the heater system is checked
for proper operation before winter.
Using the Engine Block Heater
Make sure the receptacle terminals are clean
and dry prior to use. Clean them with a dry
cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours of
energy per hour of use. The system does not
have a thermostat. It achieves maximum
temperature after approximately three hours
of operation. Using the heater longer than
three hours does not improve system
performance and unnecessarily uses
electricity.

The AdvanceTrac® with RSC® stability
enhancement system can be switched off
by deselecting the feature on the instrument
panel. See Using Traction Control (page
247). This disables the engine management
feature, allowing the vehicle to maintain full
power and enhanced momentum through
the obstacle.
Note: The AdvanceTrac system can take
control of the transfer case clutch and
disable it during driving maneuvers when
necessary.
2H - 4X2
This turns on when you select normal or
conserve. Power is delivered to the rear
wheels only. This mode is appropriate for
normal on-road driving on dry pavement and
provides the best fuel economy. 4A - 4X4 Auto
This turns on when you select excite, normal,
4x4 auto or slippery. It provides electronically
controlled four-wheel drive with power
delivered to all four wheels, as required, for
increased traction. 4A is calibrated in
conjunction with drive mode. Using 4A in
excite is less aggressively tuned and is
appropriate for dry road surfaces. Using 4A
in normal and 4x4 auto is appropriate for all
on-road driving conditions, such as dry road
surfaces, wet pavement, light snow or gravel.
Using 4A in slippery is more aggressively
tuned and is appropriate for slippery
surfaces, such as light snow or gravel.
4H - 4X4 High
This turns on when you select deep
conditions. It provides electronically locked
four-wheel drive power to both the front and
rear wheels for use in off-road or winter
conditions such as deep snow, sand or mud.
This mode is not for use on dry pavement.4L - 4X4 Low (If Equipped)
This turns on when you select slow climb. It
provides electronically locked four-wheel
drive power to both the front and rear wheels
for use on low traction surfaces, but does so
with additional gearing for increased torque
multiplication. Intended only for off-road
applications such as deep sand, steep slopes
or pulling heavy objects. Using 4L does not
engage when your vehicle is moving above
3 mph (5 km/h)
. This is normal and is no
reason for concern.
Shifting Between Four-Wheel Drive System
Modes
Note: Momentarily releasing the accelerator
pedal when a shift in progress message
displays improves engagement and
disengagement performance.
Note: Do not perform this operation if the
rear wheels are slipping.
Note: You may hear some noise as the
system shifts or engages, This is normal.
234
Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First-Printing Four-Wheel Drive
(If Equipped)

Shifting to or from 4L - 4X4 LOW
1. Bring the vehicle to a rolling speed of
3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
2. Place the gearshift in neutral (N).
3. Rotate the drive mode knob to the desired mode.
The information display shows a message
indicating a 4X4 shift is in progress. The
information display shows the system mode
selected. If any of the previous shift
conditions are not present, the shift does not
occur and the information display shows the
information guiding the driver through the
proper shifting procedures. If the previous
conditions are not satisfied within 30
seconds, the system reverts to the previous
drive mode.
If shift delayed pull forward displays in the
information display, a transfer case gear
tooth blockage is present. To alleviate this
condition, place the transmission in a forward
gear, move the vehicle forward
approximately
5 ft (2 m), and shift the
transmission back to neutral (N) to allow the
transfer case to complete the range shift. Note:
Using 4L mode is not intended to be
used on dry pavement.
Operating Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles
with Spare or Mismatched Tires
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the size of the
spare tire can affect the four-wheel drive
system. If there is a significant difference
between the size of the spare tire and the
remaining tires, you may have limited
four-wheel drive functionality.
When driving with the full-size dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly, it is
recommended that you do not:
• Exceed
50 mph (80 km/h) with a
four-wheel drive mode turned on.
• Turn on a four-wheel drive mode unless
the vehicle is stationary.
• Use a four-wheel drive mode on dry
pavement.
Use of a dissimilar spare wheel and tire
assembly may lead to impairment of the
following:
• Comfort and noise.
• Winter weather driving capability. •
Wet driving capability.
• Four-wheel drive capability.
How Your Vehicle Differs from Other
Vehicles WARNING:
Vehicles with a higher
center of gravity (utility and four-wheel
drive vehicles) handle differently than
vehicles with a lower center of gravity
(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,
excessive speed and abrupt steering in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously
increases the risk of losing control of your
vehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
Truck and utility vehicles can differ from
some other vehicles. Your vehicle may be
higher to allow it to travel over rough terrain
without getting hung up or damaging
underbody components.
The differences that make your vehicle so
versatile also make it handle differently than
an ordinary passenger car.

Mud and Water
If you must drive through high water, drive
slowly. Traction or brake capability could be
limited.
When driving through water, determine the
depth and avoid water higher than the
bottom of the hubs. If the ignition system
gets wet, your vehicle may stall.
Once through water, always try the brakes.
Wet brakes do not stop your vehicle as
effectively as dry brakes. Drying can be
improved by applying light pressure to the
brake pedal when slowly moving.
Be cautious of sudden changes in vehicle
speed or direction when you are driving in
mud. Even four-wheel drive vehicles can lose
traction in slick mud. As when you are driving
over sand, apply the accelerator slowly and
avoid spinning your wheels. If the vehicle
does slide, steer in the direction of the slide
until you regain control of the vehicle.
If the transmission, transfer case or front axle
are submerged in water, their fluids should
be checked and changed, if necessary.
If the front or rear axle is submerged in water,
the axle lubricant should be replaced.
After driving through mud, clean off residue
stuck to rotating driveshafts and tires. Excess
mud stuck on tires and rotating driveshafts
causes an imbalance that could damage
drive components.
Note:
Driving through deep water could
damage the vehicle.
Driving on Hilly or Sloping Terrain
Although natural obstacles may make it
necessary to travel diagonally up or down a
hill or steep incline, you should always try to
drive straight up or straight down.
When climbing a steep slope or hill, start in
a lower gear rather than downshifting to a
lower gear from a higher gear once the
ascent has started. This reduces strain on
the engine and the possibility of stalling.
If your vehicle stalls, do not try to turn around
because this could cause vehicle roll over.
It is better to reverse back to a safe location. Apply just enough power to the wheels to
climb the hill. Too much power causes the
tires to slip, spin or lose traction, resulting in
loss of vehicle control.
Descend a hill in the same gear you would
use to climb up the hill to avoid excessive
brake application and brake overheating. Do
not descend in neutral. Disengage overdrive
or move the transmission selector lever to a
lower gear. When descending a steep hill,
avoid sudden hard braking as you could lose
control. The front wheels have to be turning
in order to steer your vehicle.
If your vehicle has anti-lock brakes, apply the
brakes steadily. Do not pump the brakes.
238
Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First-Printing Four-Wheel Drive (If Equipped)E143949

Note:
Avoid driving crosswise or turning on
steep slopes or hills.
Note: Avoid turning on steep slopes or hills.
A danger lies in losing traction, slipping
sideways and possible vehicle roll over.
Whenever driving on a hill, determine
beforehand the route you will use. Do not
drive over the crest of a hill without seeing
what conditions are on the other side. Do
not drive in reverse over a hill without the
aid of an observer.
Driving on Snow and Ice WARNING: If you are driving in
slippery conditions that require tire chains
or cables, then it is critical that you drive
cautiously. Keep speeds down, allow for
longer stopping distances and avoid
aggressive steering to reduce the chances
of a loss of vehicle control which can lead
to serious injury or death. If the rear end
of your vehicle slides while cornering, steer
in the direction of the slide until you regain
control of your vehicle. Four-wheel drive vehicles have advantages
over two-wheel drive vehicles in snow and
ice but can skid like any other vehicle.
Should you start to slide when driving on
snowy or icy roads, turn the steering wheel
in the direction of the slide until you regain
control.
Avoid sudden applications of power and
quick changes of direction on snow and ice.
Apply the accelerator slowly and steadily
when starting from a full stop.
Avoid sudden braking. Although a four-wheel
drive vehicle may accelerate better than a
two-wheel drive vehicle in snow and ice, it
does not stop any faster as braking occurs
at all four wheels. Do not become
overconfident in any road condition.
Make sure you allow sufficient distance
between you and other vehicles for stopping.
Drive slower than usual and consider using
one of the lower gears. In emergency
stopping situations, apply the brake steadily.
Do not pump the brake pedal. See Hints on
Driving With Anti-Lock Brakes
(page 242).
Note: Excessive tire slippage can cause
transmission damage. Maintenance and Modifications
The suspension and steering systems on
your vehicle have been designed and tested
to provide predictable performance whether
loaded or empty. For this reason, we strongly
recommend that you do not make
modifications such as adding or removing
parts, for example, lift kits or stabilizer bars,
or by using replacement parts not equivalent
to the original factory equipment.
We recommend that you use caution when
your vehicle has either a high load or device
such as a ladder or luggage racks. Any
modifications to your vehicle that raise the
center of gravity could cause your vehicle to
roll over when there is a loss of vehicle
control.
Failure to maintain your vehicle correctly
could void the warranty, increase your repair
cost, reduce vehicle performance and
operational capabilities and adversely affect
you and your passenger's safety. We
recommend you frequently inspect your
vehicle's chassis components when your
vehicle is subject to off-road usage.
