4WD LOW Button
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met a message will
show on the instrument cluster display with instructions
required to complete the shift
Ú page 95.
4WD LOW To 4WD AUTO
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the
ignition switch in the ON position or the engine running,
shift the transmission into NEUTRAL (N), and push the
4WD LOW button once on the transfer case switch until
the 4WD LOW indicator light begins to flash in the
instrument cluster. The 4WD LOW light will go out when
the shift is complete.
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met a message
will show on the instrument cluster display with instruc-
tions required to complete the shift
Ú page 95.
Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the
vehicle completely stopped; however, difficulty may
occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being properly
aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch
teeth alignment and shift completion to occur. The
preferred method is with the vehicle rolling 0 to 3 mph
(0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is moving faster than
3 mph (5 km/h), the transfer case will not allow the
shift.
QUADRA-DRIVE II SYSTEM —
I
F EQUIPPED
The Quadra-Drive II System features two torque transfer
couplings. The couplings include an Electronic
Limited-Slip Differential (ELSD) rear axle and the
Quadra-Trac II transfer case. The ELSD axle is fully
automatic and requires no driver input to operate. Under
normal driving conditions, the unit functions as a standard
axle, balancing torque evenly between left and right
wheels. With a traction difference between left and right
wheels, the coupling will sense a speed difference. As one
wheel begins to spin faster than the other, torque will
automatically transfer from the wheel that has less
traction, to the wheel that has traction. While the transfer
case and axle coupling differ in design, their operation is
similar. Follow the Quadra-Trac II transfer case shifting
information, preceding this section, for shifting this
system.
SELEC-TERRAIN — IF EQUIPPED
SELEC-TERRAIN MODE SELECTION
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of the vehicle
control systems, along with driver input, to provide the
best performance for all terrains. Tap the toggle up or
down to cycle through the positions.
Selec-Terrain
Selec-Terrain consists of the following positions:
ROCK (if equipped) – Off-road calibration is only avail-
able in 4WD LOW. The vehicle is raised (if equipped
with Air Suspension) for improved ground clearance.
Traction-based tuning with improved steerability for
use on high traction off-road surfaces. Use for low
speed obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc. If
equipped with air suspension, the vehicle level will
change to Off-Road 2 (OR2). If the Selec-Terrain switch
is in ROCK mode, and the transfer case is switched
from 4WD LOW to 4WD AUTO, the Selec-Terrain system
will return to AUTO.
SAND (if equipped) – Off-road calibration for use on low
traction surfaces such as sand or wet grass. Driveline
is maximized for traction. Some binding may be felt on
less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls
are set to limit traction control management of throttle
