WHAT IS THE ELECTRONIC
LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
The electronic locking differential is adevice housed in the front or rear axle and,when activated allows both wheels on thataxle to turn at the same speed. Theelectronic locking differential can provideadditional traction should your vehiclebecome stuck. You can activate thedifferential electronically and shift it on thefly within the operating speed range. Theelectronic differential automaticallydisengages when the vehicle speedexceeds a set value and it automaticallyreengages when the vehicle speed goesbelow a set value. See Switching theElectronic Locking Differential On andOff (page 190). It also automaticallyengages based on certain selected G.O.A.Tmodes. See G.O.A.T. Mode Control(page 242). The electronic lockingdifferential is for use in mud, rocks, sand,or any off-road condition where you needmaximum traction. It is not for use on drypavement.
Note:The electronic locking differentialsare for off-road use only and not for use ondry pavement. Using the electronic lockingdifferentials on dry pavement results inincreased tire wear, noise and vibration ordriveline damage.
Note:The front electronic lockingdifferential is only available in four-wheeldrive low (4L).
Note:Locking the front differential reducesyour ability to make tight turning maneuversand creates additional resistance to steeringinputs.
Note:Switching the electronic lockingdifferentials off while turning results indisengagement difficulties. If the electroniclocking differential has difficultydisengaging, release the accelerator pedaland turn the steering wheel back and forthin small increments while maintainingcontrol and following a straight line.

WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL
The traction control system helps to avoiddrive wheel spin and loss of traction.
HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK
If your wheels begin to spin, the loss oftraction can compromise steering controland stability of the vehicle. The tractioncontrol system applies the brakes toindividual wheels and when needed,reduces engine power at the same time toincrease traction.
SWITCHING TRACTION
CONTROL ON AND OFF
WARNING: Operating your vehiclewith the traction control disabled couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
The system turns on each time you switchthe ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,switching traction control off may bebeneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Switching the System Off
The switch for the stability andtraction control system is on theinstrument panel.
When you switch the system off, amessage and an illuminated icon appearon the instrument cluster.
Use the switch again to return the tractioncontrol system to normal operation.
Note:When you switch traction control off,stability control remains fully active.
Note:When you place your vehicle intofour-wheel drive low (4L), the tractioncontrol disables. Traction control resumeswhen you put your vehicle back intotwo-wheel drive or four-wheel drive high(4H).
Note:For additional information on thetraction and stability control systems. SeeStability Control (page 204).

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: Vehicle modificationsinvolving braking system, aftermarketroof racks, suspension, steering system,tire construction and wheel and tire sizemay change the handling characteristicsof your vehicle and may adversely affectthe performance of the electronicstability control system. In addition,installing any stereo speakers mayinterfere with and adversely affect theelectronic stability control system.Reducing the effectiveness of theelectronic stability control system couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
WARNING: Remember that evenadvanced technology cannot defy thelaws of physics. It's always possible tolose control of a vehicle due toinappropriate driver input for theconditions. Aggressive driving on anyroad condition can cause you to losecontrol of your vehicle increasing the riskof personal injury or property damage.Activation of the electronic stabilitycontrol system is an indication that atleast some of the tires have exceededtheir ability to grip the road; this couldreduce the operator's ability to controlthe vehicle potentially resulting in a lossof vehicle control, vehicle rollover,personal injury and death.
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention.
