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.
Selec-Terrain consists of the following posi-
tions:
• Snow – Tuning set for additional stability in
inclement weather. Use on and off road on
loose traction surfaces such as snow. When
in Snow mode (depending on certain oper-
ating conditions), the transmission may use
second gear (rather than first gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage. If
equipped with air suspension, the default
ride height for Snow is Normal Ride Height
(NRH).
• Auto – Fully automatic full time four-wheel
drive operation can be used on and off road.
Balances traction with seamless steering
feel to provide improved handling and ac-
celeration over two-wheel drive vehicles. If
equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to Normal Ride Height (NRH).
• Sand – 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 sur-
faces. The electronic brake controls are set
to limit traction control management of
throttle and wheel spin. If equipped with air
suspension, the default ride height for
Sand is Normal Ride Height (NRH).
• Mud – Off road calibration for use on low
traction surfaces such as mud. Driveline is
maximized for traction. Some binding may
be felt on less forgiving surfaces. The elec-
tronic brake controls are set to limit traction
control management of throttle and wheel
spin. If equipped with air suspension, the
level will change to Off Road 1.
• Rock – Off road calibration only available
in 4WD Low range. The vehicle is raised (if
equipped with Air Suspension) for im-
proved ground clearance. Traction based
tuning with improved steer-ability for use
on high traction off-road surfaces. Use for
low speed obstacles such as large rocks,
deep ruts, etc. If equipped with air suspen-
sion, the vehicle level will change to Off-
Road 2. If the Selec-Terrain switch is in
ROCK mode, and the transfer case is
switched from 4WD Low to 4WD High, the
Selec-Terrain system will return to AUTO.
NOTE:
Activate the Hill Descent Control or Selec
Speed Control for steep downhill control. See
“Electronic Brake Control System” in this
section for further information.
Instrument Cluster Display Messages
When the appropriate conditions exist, a
message will appear in the instrument clus-
ter. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
