FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
LIMITATIONS
Do not use four-wheel drive high orfour-wheel drive low mode on dry, hardsurfaced roads. Doing so can produceexcessive noise, increase tire wear and candamage driveline components. Four-wheeldrive high or four-wheel drive low mode isonly for use on consistently slippery orloose surfaces. Use of four-wheel drive lowmode on these surfaces could producesome noise, such as occasional clunks, butshould not damage driveline components.
For vehicles with an electronicshift-on-the-fly transfer case, the drivelinecould become mechanically blocked whenattempting to shift out of a four-wheeldrive mode on dry, hard surfaced roads.
Note:When your vehicle comes with the4x4 part-time selectable engagementtransfer case and you are transitioning fromconsistently loose or slippery surfaces, besure the four-wheel drive system is notmechanically blocked once you are on dry,hard surfaced roads in two-wheel drive high.
Note: In certain scenarios, where thefour-wheel drive system has difficultyengaging, a To Engage 4x4 Slow to 3 MPHor To Engage 4x4 Slow to 5 km/hmessage could appear in the instrumentcluster. You can also see this messagewhen engaging the four-wheel drive systemin extreme cold climates at the beginningof the drive cycle. Once the driveline warmsup, shifting to four-wheel drive can resumeas normal.
Operating Four-Wheel Drive witha Spare or Mismatched Tires
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the size ofthe spare tire can affect the four-wheeldrive system.
If there is a significant difference betweenthe size of the spare tire and the remainingtires, you could have limited four-wheeldrive functionality, added noise, discomfortand driveline damage.
Due to normal tire wear, your spare tire isnot necessarily the same size as youron-road tires, which makes your spare tirea dissimilar size. Use the spare tire on alimited basis only.
When driving with a dissimilar wheel andtire assembly do not:
•Exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) whenoperating in a four-wheel drive mode.
•Select a four-wheel drive mode unlessthe vehicle is stationary.
•Use a four-wheel drive mode on drypavement.
You could have limited four-wheel drivefunctionality when driving with a dissimilarwheel and tire assembly, especially whendriving in a mechanically locked four-wheeldrive mode. You can experience thefollowing:
•Additional noise from the transfer caseor other drive components.
•Difficulty shifting in and out of amechanically locked four-wheel drivemode.
•Driveline component damage.
Mechanical Shift Blocking
On vehicles with an electronicshift-on-the-fly transfer case, the transfercase distributes torque to the front wheelsby mechanically interlocking the front andrear driveshafts together. Various externalfactors can affect shifting performance ofthis type of system including, but notlimited to:
•Vehicle acceleration.
•Dissimilar tire sizes.
•High steering input.

Operating Electronic LockingDifferential With a Spare orMismatched Tires
On vehicles with an electronic lockingdifferential, the size of the spare tire canaffect performance of the system. If thereis a significant difference between the tworear tires or two front tires, you may havelimited electronic locking differentialfunctionality. If the electronic lockingdifferential has difficulty disengaging,
release the accelerator pedal and turn thesteering wheel in the opposite directionwhen rolling. We recommend engagingand disengaging the electronic lockingdifferential at a stop when you mount aspare or mismatched tire on either axle.

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: Vehicle modificationsinvolving braking system, aftermarketroof racks, suspension, steering system,tire construction and wheel and tire sizemay change the handling characteristicsof your vehicle and may adversely affectthe performance of the electronicstability control system. In addition,installing any stereo speakers mayinterfere with and adversely affect theelectronic stability control system.Reducing the effectiveness of theelectronic stability control system couldlead to an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injuryand death.
WARNING: Remember that evenadvanced technology cannot defy thelaws of physics. It's always possible tolose control of a vehicle due toinappropriate driver input for theconditions. Aggressive driving on anyroad condition can cause you to losecontrol of your vehicle increasing the riskof personal injury or property damage.Activation of the electronic stabilitycontrol system is an indication that atleast some of the tires have exceededtheir ability to grip the road; this couldreduce the operator's ability to controlthe vehicle potentially resulting in a lossof vehicle control, vehicle rollover,personal injury and death.
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention. Failureto follow this instruction could result inthe loss of control of your vehicle,personal injury or death.
If a driving condition activates either thestability control or the traction controlsystem you may experience the followingconditions:
•The stability and traction control lightflashes.
•Your vehicle slows down.
•Reduced engine power.
The stability control system has severalfeatures built into it to help you maintaincontrol of your vehicle:
Electronic Stability Control
Electronic stability control enhances yourvehicle’s ability to prevent skids or lateralslides by applying brakes to one or moreof the wheels individually and, if necessary,reducing engine power.
Roll Stability Control
Roll stability control enhances yourvehicle’s ability to prevent rollovers bydetecting your vehicle’s roll motion andthe rate at which it changes by applyingthe brakes to one or more wheelsindividually.
Curve Control
Curve control enhances your vehicle’sability to follow the road when corneringseverely or avoiding objects in the roadway.Curve control operates by reducing enginepower and, if necessary, applying brakesto one or more of the wheels individually.

PARKING AID PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To help avoid personalinjury, always use caution when inreverse (R) and when using the sensingsystem.
WARNING: The system may notdetect objects with surfaces that absorbreflection. Always drive with due careand attention. Failure to take care mayresult in a crash.
WARNING: Traffic control systems,fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,air brakes, external motors and fans mayaffect the correct operation of thesensing system. This may cause reducedperformance or false alerts.
WARNING: The system may notdetect small or moving objects,particularly those close to the ground.
WARNING: The parking aid systemcan only assist you to detect objectswhen your vehicle is moving at parkingspeeds. To help avoid personal injury youmust take care when using the parkingaid system.
WARNING: The system may notfunction if the sensor is blocked.
WARNING: In cold and severeweather conditions the system may notfunction. Rain, snow and spray can alllimit sensor performance.
WARNING: If damage occurs in theimmediate area surrounding the sensor,have your vehicle checked as soon aspossible.
Note:If your vehicle sustains damageleaving the sensors misaligned, this willcause inaccurate measurements or falsealerts.
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,the rear parking aid detects the trailer andprovides an alert. Disable the parking aidwhen you connect a trailer to prevent thealert.
Note:Connected trailers might be detectedby the vehicle and parking aid turns offautomatically in those instances.
Note:Certain add-on devices installedaround the bumper or fascia may createfalse alerts, for example, large trailerhitches, bike or surfboard racks, license platebrackets, bumper covers or any other devicethat could block the normal detection zoneof the parking aid system. Aftermarket sparetires or spare tire covers mounted to the reartailgate could cause false alerts from thepark aid system. Remove the add-on deviceto prevent false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, iceand large accumulations of dirt. If thesensors are covered, the system's accuracycan be affected.
