Progressive Range Selection
(PRS) (If Equipped)
This feature gives you the ability to lockout
gears from the automatic shifting range.
This may provide you with an improved
driving experience, for example, in slippery
conditions, or when experiencing a steep
slope.
With the gearshift lever in drive (D), press
the – button to activate PRS. The
instrument cluster indicates the available
and selected gears.
Press the – button again to lock out gears
beginning with the highest gear. Only the
available gears display, and the
transmission automatically shifts between
the available gears. Press the + button to
unlock gears to allow the transmission to
shift to higher gears. The transmission
shifts within the gear range you select.
Automatic Transmission Adaptive
Learning
This feature may increase durability and
provide consistent shift feel over the life
of your vehicle. A new vehicle or
transmission may have firm shifts, soft
shifts, or both. This is normal and does not
affect function or durability of the
transmission. Over time, the adaptive
learning process fully updates transmission
operation.
Brake-Shift Interlock WARNING:
Do not drive your
vehicle until you verify that the
stoplamps are working. WARNING:
When doing this
procedure, you need to take the
transmission out of park (P) which
means your vehicle can roll freely. To
avoid unwanted vehicle movement,
always fully apply the parking brake prior
to doing this procedure. Use wheels
chocks if appropriate. WARNING:
If the parking brake is
fully released, but the brake warning
lamp remains illuminated, the brakes
may not be working properly. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Your vehicle has a feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from moving from park
(P) when the ignition is in the on position
and the brake pedal is not pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out
of the park (P) position with the ignition in
the on position and the brake pedal
pressed, a malfunction may have occurred.
It is possible that a fuse has blown, or your
vehicle ’s brake lamps are not operating
properly.
See Fuse Specification Chart
(page 104).
If the fuse is not blown and the brake
lamps are working properly, the following
procedure allows you to move the gearshift
lever from park (P):
1. Apply the parking brake. Switch the ignition key to off, then remove the key.
2. Move the steering column to the full down and full rearward position,
toward the driver seat.
3. Remove the gearshift lever boot.

TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING: Towing trailers
beyond the maximum
recommended gross trailer
weight exceeds the limit of your
vehicle and could result in engine
damage, transmission damage,
structural damage, loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover
and personal injury. WARNING:
Do not exceed
the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification
label.
Note: See
Recommended
Towing Weights (page 84).
Your vehicle may have electrical
items, such as fuses or relays,
related to towing. See
Fuses
(page 104).
Your vehicle's load capacity
designation is by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily
use all available space when
loading a vehicle or trailer.
Towing a trailer places an extra
load on your vehicle's engine,
transmission, axle, brakes, tires
and suspension. Inspect these
components periodically during,
and after, any towing operation. Load Placement
To help minimize how trailer
movement affects your vehicle
when driving:
•
Load the heaviest items closest
to the trailer floor.
• Load the heaviest items
centered between the left and
right side trailer tires.
• Load the heaviest items above
the trailer axles or just slightly
forward toward the trailer
tongue. Do not allow the final
trailer tongue weight to go
above or below 10-15% of the
loaded trailer weight.
• Select a ball mount with the
correct rise or drop and load
capacity. When both the
loaded vehicle and trailer are
connected, the trailer frame
should be level, or slightly
angled down toward your
vehicle, when viewed from the
side.
When driving with a trailer or
payload, a slight takeoff vibration
or shudder may be present due to
the increased payload weight.
Additional information regarding
proper trailer loading and setting
your vehicle up for towing is
located in another chapter of this
manual. See
Load Limit (page
78).
You can also find information in
the
RV & Trailer Towing Guide
available at your authorized
dealer, or online.

2021 Motorhome (TY3) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202010, Second-Printing Towing

Park the booster vehicle close to the hood
of the disabled vehicle, making sure the
two vehicles do not touch.
Connecting the Jumper Cables
WARNING: Do not attach the
cables to fuel lines, engine rocker covers,
the intake manifold or electrical
components as grounding points. Stay
clear of moving parts. To avoid reverse
polarity connections, make sure that you
correctly identify the positive (+) and
negative (-) terminals on both the
disabled and booster vehicles before
connecting the cables. WARNING:
Do not attach the end
of the positive cable to the studs or
L-shaped eyelet located above the
positive (+) terminal of your vehicle ’s
battery. High current may flow through
and cause damage to the fuses. WARNING: Do not connect the end
of the second cable to the negative (-)
terminal of the battery to be jumped. A
spark may cause an explosion of the
gases that surround the battery.
Note: In the illustration, the bottom vehicle
represents the booster vehicle. 1.
Connect the positive (+) jumper cable
to the positive (+) terminal of the
discharged battery.
2. Connect the other end of the positive (+) cable to the positive (+) terminal
of the booster vehicle battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) cable to the negative (-) terminal of the booster
vehicle battery.
4. Make the final connection of the negative (-) cable to an exposed metal
part of the stalled vehicle's engine,
away from the battery and the fuel
injection system, or connect the
negative (-) cable to a ground
connection point if available.

FUSE SPECIFICATION CHART
Engine Compartment Fuse Box
WARNING: Always disconnect the
battery before servicing high current
fuses. WARNING:
To reduce risk of
electrical shock, always replace the
cover to the power distribution box
before reconnecting the battery or
refilling fluid reservoirs. The engine compartment fuse box is in the
engine compartment. It has high-current
fuses that protect your vehicle's main
electrical systems from overloads.
If you disconnect and reconnect the
battery, you need to reset some features.
See Changing the 12V Battery (page
127).
Replace fuses with the same type and
rating. See
Changing a Fuse (page 111). 104
