Selec-Terrain Switch (Trailhawk)
AUTO: This four-wheel drive operation is a
continuous operation, is fully automatic and can
be used on and off-road. This mode balances
traction to ensure maneuverability and acceler
-
ation improvement compared to a vehicle with
t
wo-wheel drive. This mode also reduces fuel
consumption, since it allows the disconnect of
the drive shaft where conditions permit.
SNOW: This mode allows you to have greater
stability under conditions of bad weather. It's
used on and off-road and on surfaces with poor
traction, such as roads covered with snow.
When in SNOW mode (depending on certain
operating conditions), the transmission will use
SECOND gear (rather than FIRST gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage, except
for in 4WD LOW (Trailhawk models only).
SAND: For off-road driving or use on surfaces
with poor traction, such as sandy bottoms. The
transmission is set to provide maximum trac
-
tion. This mode allows more wheel spin and
higher
shift points to help motor through loose
areas.
MUD: For off-road driving or use on surfaces
with poor traction, such as roads covered by
mud or wet grass.
ROCK (Trailhawk only): This mode is only avail-
able in 4WD LOW. The device sets the vehicle to
m
a
x
i
m
i
ze traction and allow the highest
steering capacity for off-road surfaces. This
mode gives you the maximum performance
off-road. Use for low speed obstacles such as
large rocks, deep ruts, etc.
NOTE:
ROCK mode is only available on the vehicles
equipped with the Trailhawk package.
