Service Engine Soon
If the service engine soon
indicator light stays illuminated
after you start the engine, it
indicates that the On Board Diagnostics
system (OBD) has detected a malfunction
of the vehicle emissions control system.
Refer to On Board Diagnostics (OBD) in
the Fuel and Refueling chapter for more
information about having your vehicle
serviced. See Emission Control System
(page 156).
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is
occurring which could damage your
catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate
fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle
serviced immediately. WARNING
Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic
converter, the fuel system, interior floor
coverings or other vehicle components,
possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized
dealer service your vehicle immediately. The service engine soon indicator light
illuminates when you first switch on the
ignition before engine start to check the
bulb and to indicate whether the vehicle
is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light
stays on until you crank the engine, then
turns itself off if no malfunctions are
present. However, if after 15 seconds the
service engine soon light blinks eight times,
it means that the vehicle is not ready for
I/M testing. See
Emission Control
System (page 156). Stability Control System Displays when the
AdvanceTrac®/Traction control
is active. If the light remains on,
have the system serviced immediately.
See
Using Stability Control (page 177).
Stability Control System Off Illuminates when you disable
AdvanceTrac®/Traction. See
Using Stability Control
(page
177).
Transmission Tow/Haul
(If Equipped) Illuminates when you activate
the tow/haul feature. If the light
flashes steadily, have the system
serviced immediately. Damage to the
transmission could occur. See
Automatic
Transmission (page 159).
4X2 Illuminates momentarily when
you engage two-wheel drive
high. If the light fails to display
or remains on when the ignition is on, have
the system serviced immediately by an
authorized dealer.
4X4 Auto Illuminates when you engage the
four-wheel drive system. If the
light fails to display or remains
on when the ignition is on, have the system
serviced immediately by an authorized
dealer.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WARNINGS
Always set the parking brake fully
and latch the gearshift in park (P).
Turn the ignition to the off position
and remove the key whenever you leave
your vehicle. Do not use the tow/haul feature
when driving in icy or slippery
conditions as the increased engine
braking can cause the rear wheels to slide
and your vehicle to swing around with the
possible loss of vehicle control. Selector Lever Positions
Column shift transmission:
Floor shift transmission: Putting your vehicle in or out of gear:
1. Fully press down the brake pedal.
2. Move the gearshift lever into the
desired gear.
3. Come to a complete stop.
4. Move the gearshift lever and securely latch it in park (P).
Park (P)
This position locks the transmission and
prevents the rear wheels from turning.
Reverse (R)
With the gearshift lever in reverse (R), your
vehicle will move backward. Always come
to a complete stop before shifting into and
out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N)
With the gearshift lever in neutral (N), your
vehicle can be started and is free to roll.
Hold the brake pedal down while in this
position.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for
the best fuel economy. The overdrive
function allows automatic upshifts and
downshifts through gears one through six.
Manual (M)
With the gearshift lever in manual (M), you
can change gears up or down as desired
by using buttons on the shift lever. See
Understanding your SelectShift
Automatic ™ transmission later in this
section.
Third (3) (Column Shifter Only)
Transmission operates in third (3) gear
only. Use third (3) gear for improved
traction on slippery roads.

USING FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
WARNING
For important information regarding
safe operation of this type of vehicle,
see General Information in the
Wheels and Tires chapter. Note:
Do not use 4H or 4L mode on dry,
hard surfaced roads. Doing so will produce
excessive noise, increase tire wear and may
damage drive components. 4H and 4L mode
is only intended for consistently slippery or
loose surfaces.
Note: If 4L mode is selected while your
vehicle is moving above 3 mph (5 km/h),
the 4WD system will not perform a shift.
This is normal and should be no reason for
concern. Refer to Shifting to or from 4L for
proper operation.
4WD Indicator Lights
The indicator lights illuminate in the
information display in the reconfigurable
telltale (RTT) location under the following
conditions. See
Warning Lamps and
Indicators (page 88).
Note: When a 4X4 system fault is present,
the system will typically remain in whichever
4WD mode was selected prior to the fault
condition occurring. It will not default to 4X2
in all circumstances. When this warning is
displayed, have your vehicle serviced by an
authorized dealer.
4X2 Momentarily illuminates when
2H is selected.
4X4 AUTO Continuously illuminates when
4A is selected. 4X4 HIGH Continuously illuminates when
4H is selected.
4X4 LOW Continuously illuminates when
4L is selected.
4WD Switch Positions WARNING
Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles
are not designed for cornering at
speeds as high as passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are
designed to perform satisfactorily under
off-road conditions. Avoid sharp turns or
abrupt maneuvers in these vehicles. Note:
If your vehicle is equipped with
AdvanceTrac® with RSC®, the system will
automatically turn off the stability
enhancement feature when you shift the
4WD system into 4L (4X4 LOW). You can
manually turn the system off by pressing
the AdvanceTrac button. See Using
Traction Control (page 175). This will
disable the engine management feature,
allowing the vehicle to maintain full power
and enhanced momentum through the
obstacle. The brake traction enhancement
feature will still be enabled.
Note: The Control Trac® selector switch
should not be changed while the rear wheels
are slipping.
