Note:
Not every feature applies to every
vehicle in every market. When they are
available for your vehicle, then they appear
in your information display, providing
choices to switch them on or off, or to select
a more specific setting.
• Various vehicle speed limits so the
MyKey driver cannot exceed certain
speeds. The information display shows
warnings followed by an audible tone
when the MyKey driver reaches the set
speed. You cannot override the set
speed by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal. WARNING: Do not set MyKey
maximum speed limit to a limit that will
prevent the driver from maintaining a
safe speed considering posted speed
limits and prevailing road conditions. The
driver is always responsible to drive in
accordance with local laws and
prevailing conditions. Failure to do so
could result in accident or injury. •
Various vehicle speed reminders so
MyKey drivers know when their vehicle
speed approaches the limits. Warnings
appear in your information display and
a tone sounds when the MyKey drivers
exceed the set vehicle speed.
• The audio system's maximum volume
limits to 45% so MyKey drivers can
concentrate on the road. A message
appears in the information display
when MyKey drivers attempt to exceed
the limited volume. MyKey also
disables the automatic volume control.
Note:
If your vehicle includes an
AM/FM radio or a very basic audio
system, then the radio may not limit.
• Always on setting. This setting forces
certain features to remain on and
active for MyKey drivers. For example,
E911 or emergency assistance and the
do not disturb features stay on even if
a MyKey driver uses the feature's
control to switch it off. When selected,
you will not be able to turn off Advance
Trac or traction control (if your vehicle
has this feature).
CREATING A MYKEY
Use the touchscreen to create a MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program into
the ignition. If your vehicle has a

Driving in Special Conditions With
Four-Wheel Drive
Four-wheel drive has operating
characteristics that are somewhat
different from front-wheel drive, both on
and off the freeway.
When driving at slow speeds under
high-load conditions, use a low gear when
possible. Low gear operation maximizes
the engine and transmission cooling
capability.
Under severe operating conditions, the air
conditioning cycles on and off to prevent
the engine from overheating.
Note:
It may be useful to select the most
appropriate drive mode to most effectively
maximize vehicle performance. See
G.O.A.T. Mode Control (page 232).
Note: In certain conditions, you need to
switch traction control off to allow for more
wheel spin and engine torque if your vehicle
becomes stuck.
Note: If the front or rear axle is submerged
in water, check the rear axle lubricant and
power transfer unit lubricant and change if
necessary.
See Driving Through Water
Limitations (page 256).
Basic Operating Principles
Drive slower in strong crosswinds which
can affect the normal steering
characteristics of your vehicle.
When driving your vehicle on surfaces
made slippery by loose sand, water, gravel,
snow or ice, proceed with care.
If Your Vehicle leaves the Road
If your vehicle leaves the road, reduce the
speed and avoid severe braking. After you
reduce the speed, ease your vehicle back
onto the road. Do not turn the steering
wheel sharply when returning your vehicle
to the road. It could be safer to stay on the shoulder of
the road and gradually slow down before
returning to the road. You could lose
control if you do not slow down or if you
turn the steering wheel too sharply or
abruptly.
It might be less risky to strike small objects,
such as freeway reflectors, which could
cause minor damage to your vehicle rather
than attempt a sudden return to the road
which, could cause your vehicle to slide
sideways out of control or roll over.
Remember, your safety and the safety of
others is your primary concern.
Emergency Maneuvers
In an unavoidable emergency where you
need to make a sharp turn, remember to
avoid over-driving your vehicle, for
example, turn the steering wheel only as
rapidly and as far as required to avoid the
emergency. Excessive steering can result
in loss of vehicle control. Apply smooth
pressure to the accelerator pedal or brake
pedal when changes in vehicle speed are
required. Avoid abrupt steering,
acceleration and braking. This could result
in an increased risk of vehicle rollover, loss
of vehicle control and personal injury. Use
all available road surface to bring your
vehicle to a safe direction of travel.
In the event of an emergency stop, avoid
skidding the tires and do not attempt any
sharp steering wheel movements.
If your vehicle goes from one type of
surface to another, for example, from
concrete to gravel, there will be a change
in the way your vehicle responds to a
maneuver, for example, steering,
acceleration or braking.
Note:
For off-road driving,

Four-Wheel Drive Lock (If Equipped)
The four-wheel drive lock increases
performance by preventing the front and
rear axles from disconnecting. You can
activate and deactivate the four-wheel
drive lock on the fly by pressing the button
on the drive mode control. It also engages
based on certain selected drive modes.
See
What Is G.O.A.T. Mode Control
(page 232).
Note: The four-wheel drive lock is not
intended for use on dry pavement. Using the
lock on dry pavement can produce excessive
noise, increase tire and vehicle wear.
Note: The system may require the
four-wheel drive lock in some drive modes,
preventing you from disabling. This feature provides an
indicator light in the information
display when in use. When in
standby mode, the light displays gray.
When active, the light changes color. Rear Differential Lock
(If Equipped)
This feature provides additional traction
on loose or steep terrain, or should your
vehicle become stuck. You can activate
and deactivate the rear differential lock
feature while moving within the operating
speed range by pressing the button on the
drive mode control. The feature disengages
when the vehicle speed exceeds a set
value and it re-engages when the vehicle
speed goes below a set value. It also
engages based on certain selected drive
modes. See
Selecting a G.O.A.T. Mode
(page 232).
The rear differential lock is for use in mud,
rocks, sand or off-road conditions where
you need maximum traction. It is not for
use on dry pavement.
Note: This feature is for off-road use only
and is not for use on dry pavement. Using
the rear differential lock feature on dry
pavement can produce excessive noise, and
increase tire and vehicle wear. Operating
your vehicle in these conditions could
subject your vehicle to excessive stress,
which may result in damage not covered
under your warranty.
Note: This feature is not available in all
drive modes. The rear differential lock
provides an indicator light in the
information display when in use.
When the feature is in standby mode, the
light displays gray. While the feature is
active, the light changes color.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces engine power
at the same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order
to increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING: Operating your vehicle
with the traction control disabled could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
The system automatically turns on each
time you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note: When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System Off
When you switch the system off or on, a
message appears in the information
display showing system status.
You can switch the system off by either
using the information display controls or
the switch.
Using the Information Display
Controls
You can switch this feature off or on in the
information display. See
General
Information (page 102). Using a Switch
(If Equipped)
Using the traction control switch on the
center console to turn this feature off or
on.
System Indicator Lights and
Messages The stability and traction control
light:
• Temporarily illuminates on engine
start-up.
• Flashes when a driving condition
activates either of the systems.
• Illuminates if a problem occurs in either
of the systems. The stability and traction control

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING: Vehicle modifications
involving braking system, aftermarket
roof racks, suspension, steering system,
tire construction and wheel and tire size
may change the handling characteristics
of your vehicle and may adversely affect
the performance of the electronic
stability control system. In addition,
installing any stereo loudspeakers may
interfere with and adversely affect the
electronic stability control system. Install
any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker as
far as possible from the front center
console, the tunnel, and the front seats
in order to minimize the risk of interfering
with the electronic stability control
sensors. Reducing the effectiveness of
the electronic stability control system
could lead to an increased risk of loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death. WARNING:
Remember that even
advanced technology cannot defy the
laws of physics. It’ s always possible to
lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the
conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the electronic stability
control system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded
their ability to grip the road; this could
reduce the operator ’s ability to control
the vehicle potentially resulting in a loss
of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death. If your
electronic stability control system
activates, SLOW DOWN.
The system automatically turns on each
time you switch the ignition on. If a fault occurs in either the stability
control or the traction control system, you
may experience the following conditions:
•
The stability and traction control light
illuminates steadily.
• The stability control and traction
control systems do not enhance your
vehicle's ability to maintain traction of
the wheels.
If a driving condition activates either the
stability control or the traction control
system you may experience the following
conditions:
• The stability and traction control light
flashes.
• Your vehicle slows down.
• Reduced engine power.
• A vibration in the brake pedal.
• The brake pedal is stiffer than usual.
• If the driving condition is severe and
your foot is not on the brake, the brake
pedal may move as the system applies
higher brake force.
The stability control system has several
features built into it to help you maintain
control of your vehicle:
Electronic Stability Control
The system enhances your vehicle ’s ability
to prevent skids or lateral slides by
applying brakes to one or more of the
wheels individually and, if necessary,
reducing engine power.
Roll Stability Control
The system enhances your vehicle ’s ability
to prevent rollovers by detecting your
vehicle ’s roll motion and the rate at which
it changes by applying the brakes to one
or more wheels individually.
