Note:Do not perform this operation whenyou have cruise control or trail controlselected and active. The system may notshift as expected.
Note:Do not perform this operation if therear wheels are slipping or when applyingthe accelerator pedal or when driving in atight turn.
Note:Momentarily releasing the acceleratorpedal when a shift in progress messagedisplays can improve engagement ordisengagement performance.
Note:When the light is solid, the systemhas achieved the desired four-wheel drivemode. When a selected four-wheel drivemode light is blinking, the system isattempting to shift to that specificfour-wheel drive mode.

Shifting to or from Four-WheelDrive Low
1.Bring your vehicle to a stop.
2.For vehicles with an automatictransmission, place in neutral (N). Forvehicles with a manual transmission,fully press the clutch pedal.
3.Push 4L on the four-wheel drive modeselector.

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE MODES
TWO-WHEEL DRIVE HIGH
Two-wheel drive high is for generalon-road driving. Power is sent to the rearwheels only.
Note:Two-wheel drive high can turn on oroff based on Drive Mode selection SeeG.O.A.T. Mode Control (page 260).
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE AUTO (If
Equipped)
Four-wheel drive auto provideselectronically controlled four-wheel drivepower to both the front and rear wheels,as required, for increased traction in varyingon-road conditions. The four-wheel driveauto tuning varies based on selected DriveMode. See Selecting a Four-Wheel DriveMode (page 197).
Note:Four-wheel drive auto can turn on oroff automatically based on Drive Modeselection. See Selecting a Four-WheelDrive Mode (page 197).
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE HIGH
Four-wheel drive high provideselectronically or mechanically lockedfour-wheel drive power to both the frontand rear wheels for use in off-road orwinter conditions such as deep snow, sandor mud. This mode is not for use on drypavement.

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 203). It also automaticallyengages based on certain selected G.O.A.Tmodes. See G.O.A.T. Mode Control(page 260). 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 TRAIL CONTROL
WARNING: The system does notcontrol speed in low traction conditionsor extremely steep slopes. The systemis designed to be an aid and does notrelieve you of your responsibility to drivewith due care and attention. Failure tofollow this instruction could result inpersonal injury.
Trail control lets you focus on steeringduring low-speed and off-road use bycontrolling your vehicle's acceleration andbraking to maintain the speed that you set.
You may hear a noise from the anti-lockbrake system pump motor when you usethe system. This is normal.
TRAIL CONTROL LIMITATIONS
Trail control is unavailable when any of thefollowing occur:
•Your vehicle speed is greater than20 mph (32 km/h) in two-wheel drivehigh (2H) or four-wheel drive high (4H)modes.
•Your vehicle speed is greater than9 mph (15 km/h) in four-wheel drivelow (4L) mode.
•Your vehicle speed is greater than5 mph (8 km/h) in reverse (R).
•The transmission is in park (P).
•The driver side door is open or yourseatbelt is off when the driver side dooris removed.
