WHAT ARE THE INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER WARNING LAMPS
Warning lamps alert you to a vehicle
condition that could become serious.
Some lamps illuminate when you start
your vehicle to make sure they work. If any
lamps remain on after starting your vehicle,
refer to the respective system warning
lamp for further information.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
WARNING LAMPS
Anti-Lock Brake System If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a concern.
Your vehicle continues to have
normal braking without the anti-lock brake
system function. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.

BRAKE PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Driving your vehicle
with the warning lamp on is dangerous.
A significant decrease in braking
performance may occur. It may take you
longer to stop your vehicle. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Driving extended distances with the
parking brake engaged can cause brake
failure and the risk of personal injury.
Wet brakes result in reduced braking
efficiency. Gently press the brake pedal a
few times when leaving a car wash or
driving from standing water to dry the
brakes.
Note: Depending on applicable laws and
regulations in the country for which your
vehicle was originally built, the stoplamps
could flash during heavy braking. Following
this the hazard warning flashers could also
turn on when your vehicle comes to a stop.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
The anti-lock braking system does not
eliminate the risk of crash when:
• You drive too closely to the vehicle in
front of you.
• Your vehicle is hydroplaning.
• You take corners too fast.
• The road surface is poor.
Note: If the system activates, the brake
pedal could pulse and travel further.
Maintain pressure on the brake pedal. BRAKE OVER ACCELERATOR
In the event the accelerator pedal
becomes stuck or entrapped, apply steady
and firm pressure to the brake pedal to
slow the vehicle and reduce engine power.
If you experience this condition, apply the
brakes and bring your vehicle to a safe
stop. Move the transmission to park (P),
switch the engine off and apply the parking
brake. Inspect the accelerator pedal for
any interference. If none are found and the
condition persists, have your vehicle towed
to the nearest authorized dealer.
BRAKE OVER ACCELERATOR
- RAPTOR
In the event the accelerator pedal
becomes stuck or entrapped, apply steady
and firm pressure to the brake pedal to
slow the vehicle and reduce engine power.
If you experience this condition, apply the
brakes and bring your vehicle to a safe
stop. Move the transmission to park (P),
switch the engine off and apply the parking
brake. Inspect the accelerator pedal for
any interference. If none are found and the
condition persists, have your vehicle towed
to the nearest authorized dealer.
Note:
Certain drive modes can disable
brake over accelerator for off-road driving.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The electric power
steering system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays
in the information display. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Switch the vehicle off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the vehicle on and
watch the information display for a
steering system warning message. If a
steering system warning message
returns, have the system checked as
soon as possible. WARNING:
If the system detects
an error, you may not feel a difference in
the steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control.
Adapt your speed and driving behavior
according to reduced steering assist.
Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort to steer. This occurs to prevent
internal overheating and damage to the
steering system. If this occurs, you will not
lose the ability to steer your vehicle
manually nor will it cause damage to the
system. Normal steering and driving allows
the system to cool down and steering
assist returns to normal.
Note: There is no fluid reservoir to check or
fill. ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ADAPTIVE STEERING - VEHICLES
WITH: ACTIVE STEERING
The adaptive steering system changes the
steering ratio with changes to vehicle
speed, optimizing the steering response in
all conditions. The system also changes
when you switch on the transmission
tow/haul feature. When you select the
tow/haul button, the adaptive steering
system reduces vehicle sensitivity to
steering inputs at higher vehicle speeds,
while maintaining the ease of parking and
maneuverability at low speeds.
Note:
The adaptive steering system
continuously monitors for faults. If the
system detects a fault, a message appears
in the information display. If a red warning
message displays, stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so. The message could
clear if the fault is no longer present. If an
adaptive steering system warning message
appears each time you start your vehicle,
have the system checked as soon as
possible.
Note: The system has a locking device. It
remains mechanically locked at a fixed
steering ratio with the lock engaged. You
may notice a click when you turn your
vehicle on or off.
Note: If your vehicle loses electrical power
or detects a fault when you are driving, the
system shuts down and you retain a normal
steering function with a fixed steering ratio.
During this time, it is possible that the
steering wheel could not be straight when
the vehicle is driving straight ahead. In
addition, you could notice that the steering
wheel angle required to steer your vehicle
could be different.

Vehicles used to traverse water should be
periodically inspected for signs of water
ingestion in all of the vehicle's fluids. If
water is found inside your vehicle fluids,
service your vehicle or see an authorized
dealer.
Avoid Getting High-Centered
Always keep available ground clearance
in mind and pick a route that minimizes the
risk of catching the underside of the vehicle
on an obstacle and getting high-centered.
Freeing A Stuck Vehicle
WARNING: Do not spin the wheels
at over 34 mph (55 km/h). The tires may
fail and injure a passenger or bystander.
Recovery hooks are mounted to the
vehicle's structure and are used to pull out
the vehicle from a surface or location when
stuck. Recover your vehicle using various
towing apparatus attached to your
recovery hook such as winch, open hook,
or strap.
Note: Do not use recovery hooks to
recreationally tow your vehicle. See
Recreationally Towing Your Vehicle (page
469
).
Note: Do not rock your vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature as
damage to the transmission could occur.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle for more
than a minute as damage to the
transmission and tires could occur or the
engine could overheat.
If you are unable to free your vehicle call
roadside assistance. See
Roadside
Assistance (page 462). Crossing A Ravine, Gully, Ditch,
Washout Or Rut
Review the path ahead before attempting
to cross any obstacle.
Driving Over Logs
Review the path ahead before attempting
to cross any obstacle.
DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE AT HIGH
SPEEDS - RAPTOR
If you plan on using your vehicle for severe,
high speed off-road use, we recommend
the following:
•
Equipping your vehicle with the safety
equipment appropriate for off-road
recovery.
• Using personal safety equipment,
including a certified helmet and
approved neck restraint device.
• Doing a low speed reconnaissance run
in unfamiliar areas to become aware
of any obstacles that you could
encounter.
Your vehicle can incur damage if driven
beyond its capabilities. Skid plates, shock
guards and running boards are designed
to help limit damage to vital components
and exterior finishes, but cannot prevent
all damage if driven in extreme off-road
conditions. Damage to skid plates, shock
guards, running boards and exterior
finishes as well as bent, cracked or broken
body, frame and chassis components may
not be covered by warranty.
