USING ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
All-wheel drive uses all four wheels to
power the vehicle. This increases traction,
enabling you to drive over terrain and road
conditions that a conventional two-wheel
drive vehicle cannot. The AWD system is
active all the time and requires no input
from the operator.
Note: Your AWD vehicle is not intended for
off-road use. The AWD feature gives your
vehicle some limited off-road capabilities
in which driving surfaces are relatively level,
obstruction-free and otherwise similar to
normal on-road driving conditions.
Operating your vehicle under other than
those conditions could subject the vehicle
to excessive stress which might result in
damage which is not covered under your
warranty.
Note: The Power Transfer Unit (PTU) in
police vehicles does not require any normal
scheduled maintenance. The system is
electronically monitored and notifies the
driver of required service in the information
display. The PTU lube will be more likely to
require a fluid change if the vehicle has
experienced extended periods of
extreme/severe duty cycle driving. Do not
check or change the PTU lubricant unless
the unit shows signs of leakage or a
message indicating required service is
displayed. Contact an authorized dealer for
service if the PTU was submerged in water
and to reset the PTU lube life monitor.
Note: When an AWD system fault is
present, if the system is overheated or if
service is required, a message displays in
the information display. The display
messages, along with the triggering actions
and description of the message, are shown
in the following table.
