200STARTING AND OPERATING
OFF-ROAD DRIVING TIPS
Quadra-Lift — If Equipped
When off-roading, it is recommended that the
lowest useable vehicle height that will clear the
current obstacle or terrain be selected. The vehicle
height should then be raised as required by the
changes in terrain.
The Selec-Terrain switch will automatically change
the vehicle to the optimized height based on the
Selec-Terrain switch position. The vehicle height
can be changed from the default height for each
Selec-Terrain mode by normal use of the air
suspension switches Úpage 131.
When To Use 4WD LOW Range —
If Equipped
When off-road driving, shift to 4WD LOW for
additional traction. This range should be limited to
extreme situations such as deep snow, mud, or
sand where additional low speed pulling power is
needed. Vehicle speeds in excess of 25 mph
(40 km/h) should be avoided when in 4WD LOW
range.
Driving Through Water
Although your vehicle is capable of driving through
water, there are a number of precautions that
must be considered before entering the water.
NOTE:Your vehicle is capable of water fording in up to
24 inches (61 cm) with air suspension or
21 inches (53 cm) without air suspension, of water
while crossing small rivers or streams. To maintain
optimal performance of your vehicle's heating and
ventilation system it is recommended to switch the
system into recirculation mode during water
fording. Be sure to avoid lowering the vehicle in
water, ensure that the easy exit entry setting is
turned off in Uconnect settings. Driving through water more than a few inches/
centimeters deep will require extra caution to
ensure safety and prevent damage to your vehicle.
If you must drive through water, try to determine
the depth and the bottom condition (and location
of any obstacles) prior to entering. Proceed with
caution and maintain a steady controlled speed
less than 5 mph (8 km/h) in deep water to
minimize wave effects.
Flowing Water
If the water is swift flowing and rising (as in storm
run-off), avoid crossing until the water level
recedes and/or the flow rate is reduced. If you
must cross flowing water avoid depths in excess of
9 inches (23 cm). The flowing water can erode the
streambed, causing your vehicle to sink into
deeper water. Determine exit point(s) that are
downstream of your entry point to allow for drifting.
WARNING!
Do not drive in 4WD LOW range on dry
pavement; driveline damage may result. 4WD
LOW range locks front and rear drivelines
together and does not allow for differential
action between the front to rear driveshafts.
Driving in 4WD LOW on pavement will cause
driveline binding; use only on wet or slippery
surfaces.
CAUTION!
When driving through water, do not exceed
5 mph (8 km/h). Always check water depth
before entering as a precaution, and check all
fluids afterward. Driving through water may
cause damage that may not be covered by the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
