12| CONTROLS * (CONTINUED )
TRAILER SWAY CONTROL* applies your vehicle brakes at
individual wheels and, if necessary, reduces engine power. If
the trailer begins to sway, the stability control light flashes
and the message TRAILER SWAY REDUCE SPEED appears
in the information display. The first thing to do is slow down
your vehicle, then pull safely to the side of the road and check
for proper tongue load and trailer load distribution. For more
information, please refer to the Towing chapter in your
Owner’s Manual.
13 | INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER *
assists in smooth and effective trailer braking by powering
the trailer’s electric or electric over hydraulic brakes with a
proportional output based on the towing vehicle’s
brake pressure.
Use the GAIN adjustment buttons to increase or decrease the
braking feature’s power output to the trailer.
Adjust the GAIN by pressing the GAIN + or GAIN – buttons to
increase or decrease the setting to the desired starting point.
A GAIN setting of 6.0 is a good starting point for heavier loads.
To test the adjusted GAIN setting:
• In a traffic-free environment, tow the trailer on a dry,
level surface at a speed of 20-25 mph (30-40 km/h) and
squeeze the manual control lever completely.
• If the trailer wheels lock up (the tires will squeal), reduce
the GAIN setting. If the trailer wheels turn freely, increase
the GAIN setting.
• The proper GAIN setting will be at the point just below
trailer wheel lock-up. If towing a heavier trailer, trailer
wheel lockup may not be attainable even with the
maximum GAIN setting of 10.
For more information, please refer to the Towing chapter in your
Owner’s Manual.
14 | FOUR -WHEEL DRIVE (4W D )*
operates in four modes for a variety of road conditions:
2H (4X2) mode delivers power to the rear wheels only, that is
appropriate for normal, on-road driving on dry pavement and
provides the best fuel economy.
4A (4X4 AUTO) mode provides electronic control four-wheel
drive with power delivered to all four wheels, as required, for
increased traction. This mode is appropriate for all on-road
driving conditions, such as dry road surfaces, wet pavement,
snow and gravel.
4H (4X4) mode provides electronically locked four-wheel drive
power to all four wheels. This position is not recommended for
use on dry pavement and is only intended for severe winter or
off-road conditions, such as deep snow, ice or shallow sand.
4L (4X4) mode provides electronically locked four-wheel
drive when extra power at reduced speeds is needed. Use this
mode for off-road, low-speed operation, such as climbing steep
grades, pulling a boat out of the water and more. Refer to the
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) chapter in your Owner’s Manual.
