is for the vehicle to be rolling, below
15 MPH (24 km/h), while including right
and left steering maneuvers to allow for the
clutch teeth to align.
The Rear E-Locker System must be disen-
gaged prior to taking the vehicle out of 4WD
LOW range. If 4WD LOW shift conditions/
interlocks are not met, a message will flash
from the instrument cluster display with
instructions on how to complete the re-
quested shift.
SELEC-TERRAIN
Description
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of
the vehicle control systems, along with driver
input, to provide the best performance for all
terrains.
Rotate the Selec-Terrain knob to select the
desired mode.
Selec-Terrain offers the following modes:
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.
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 cer-
tain operating conditions), the transmis-
sion may use second gear (rather than first
gear) during launches, to minimize wheel
slippage.
Sport This mode alters the transmis-
sion's automatic shift schedule for sportier
driving. Upshift speeds are increased to
make full use of available engine power.
NOTE:
SPORT mode is not available when 4WD LOW
is selected.
Sand/Mud Off-road calibration for use on
low traction surfaces such as mud, sand, or
wet grass. Driveline is maximized for trac-
tion. Some binding may be felt on less
forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake
controls are set to limit traction control
management of throttle and wheel spin.
Rock Off-road calibration only available
in 4WD LOW range. 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.
