Note:When you insert the correct size fuelpump nozzle a spring loaded inhibitor willopen.
2. Insert the fuel pump nozzle up to thefirst notch on the nozzle A. Keep itresting on the cover of the fuel tankfiller pipe opening.
3. Hold the fuel pump nozzle in positionB when refueling. Holding the fuelnozzle in position A can affect the flowof fuel and shut off the fuel nozzlebefore the fuel tank is full.
4. Operate the fuel pump nozzle withinthe area shown.
5.Slightly raise the fuel pump nozzle andthen slowly remove it.
6. Fully close the fuel tank filler door.
Note: Do not attempt to start the engineif you have filled the fuel tank with incorrectfuel. Incorrect fuel use can cause damagenot covered by the vehicle Warranty. Haveyour vehicle checked immediately.
System Warnings (If Equipped)

5. Insert a fuel pump nozzle or the fuelfiller funnel provided with your vehiclein to the fuel tank filler pipe opening.This action should dislodge any debristhat may be preventing the fuel fillerinlet from fully closing.
Note: If this action corrects the problemthe message may not reset immediately. Ifthe message remains and the service enginesoon warning lamp appears in theinformation display, have your vehiclechecked as soon as possible.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Empty reserve is the amount of fuelremaining in the tank after the fuel gaugeindicates empty. The amount of usablefuel in the empty reserve varies and shouldnot be relied upon to increase driving range.
•The usable capacity of the fuel tank isthe amount of fuel that you can add tothe fuel tank when the fuel gaugeindicates empty, before the first fuelfiller nozzle automatic shutoff event.
•The advertised capacity is equal to thevolumetric difference between actualfuel fill before the first fuel filler nozzleautomatic shutoff event and the fuelquantity when the fuel gauge indicatesempty. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 304). It is theusable capacity minus the emptyreserve.
•Due to the empty reserve, you may beable to add more fuel than theadvertised capacity of the fuel tankwhen the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Filling the Fuel Tank
For consistent results when refueling:
•Turn the ignition off before fueling; aninaccurate reading results if the engineis left running.
•Use the same fill rate(low-medium-high) each time the tankis filled.
•Allow no more than one automaticshut-off when refueling.
Results are most accurate when the fillingmethod is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during thefirst 1,000 mi (1,600 km) of driving (this isyour engine’s break-in period). A moreaccurate measurement is obtained after2,000 mi (3,200 km) to 3,000 mi(4,800 km). Also, fuel expense, frequencyof fill ups or fuel gauge readings are notaccurate ways to measure fuel economy.
1.Fill the fuel tank completely and recordthe initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the fuel tank, recordthe amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three fill ups, fill the fueltank and record the current odometerreading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer readingfrom the current odometer reading.
To calculate L/100 km (liters per 100kilometers) fuel consumption, multiply theliters used by 100, then divide by kilometerstraveled. To calculate MPG (miles pergallon) fuel consumption, divide milestraveled by gallons used.

Brake-Shift Interlock
WARNINGS
Do not drive your vehicle until youverify that the brake lamps areworking.
When doing this procedure, you needto take the transmission out of park(P) which means your vehicle canroll freely. To avoid unwanted vehiclemovement, always fully set the parkingbrake prior to doing this procedure. Usewheels chocks if appropriate.
If the parking brake is fully released,but the brake warning lamp remainsilluminated, the brakes may not beworking properly. Have your vehiclechecked as soon as possible.
Your vehicle is equipped with a brake-shiftinterlock feature that prevents moving thegearshift lever from park (P) when theignition is in the on position and the brakepedal is not pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever outof park (P) position with the ignition in theon position and the brake pedal pressed,a malfunction may have occurred. It ispossible that a fuse has blown or yourvehicle’s brake lamps are not operatingproperly. See Fuse Specification Chart(page 233).
If the fuse is not blown and the brakelamps are working properly, the followingprocedure will allow you to move thegearshift lever from park (P):
Column-shifter
1. Apply the parking brake. Turn theignition key to the off position, thenremove the key.
2. Move the steering column to the fulldown and full rearward position(toward the driver’s seat).

USING FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
WARNING
For important information regardingsafe operation of this type of vehicle,see General Information in theWheels and Tires chapter.
Note:Do not use 4H or 4L mode on dry,hard surfaced roads. Doing so will produceexcessive noise, increase tire wear and maydamage drive components. 4H and 4L modeis only intended for consistently slippery orloose surfaces.
Note:If 4L mode is selected while yourvehicle is moving above 3 mph (5 km/h),the 4WD system will not perform a shift.This is normal and should be no reason forconcern. Refer to Shifting to or from 4L forproper operation.
4WD Indicator Lights
The indicator lights illuminate in theinformation display in the reconfigurabletelltale (RTT) location under the followingconditions. See Warning Lamps andIndicators (page 87).
Note:When a 4X4 system fault is present,the system will typically remain in whichever4WD mode was selected prior to the faultcondition occurring. It will not default to 4X2in all circumstances. When this warning isdisplayed, have your vehicle serviced by anauthorized dealer.
4X2
Momentarily illuminates when2H is selected.
4X4 AUTO
Continuously illuminates when4A is selected.
4X4 HIGH
Continuously illuminates when4H is selected.
4X4 LOW
Continuously illuminates when4L is selected.
4WD Switch Positions
WARNING
Utility and four-wheel drive vehiclesare not designed for cornering atspeeds as high as passenger cars anymore than low-slung sports cars aredesigned to perform satisfactorily underoff-road conditions. Avoid sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers in these vehicles.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped withAdvanceTrac® with RSC®, the system willautomatically turn off the stabilityenhancement feature when you shift the4WD system into 4L (4X4 LOW). You canmanually turn the system off by pressingthe AdvanceTrac button. See UsingTraction Control (page 176).

The Control Trac® system functions in fourmodes:
•2H delivers power to the rear wheelsonly. The information display willmomentarily display 2H when thismode is selected. This mode isappropriate for normal on-road drivingon dry pavement and provides the bestfuel economy.
•4A provides electronic controlfour-wheel drive with power deliveredto all four wheels, as required, forincreased traction. The informationdisplay will display 4A when this modeis selected. This mode is appropriatefor all on-road driving conditions, suchas dry road surfaces, wet pavement,snow, or gravel.
•4H provides electronically lockedfour-wheel drive power to front andrear wheels. The information displaywill display 4H when this mode isselected. This mode is notrecommended for use on drypavement. This mode is only intendedfor severe winter or off-road conditions,such as deep snow, ice or shallow sand.
•4L provides electronically lockedfour-wheel drive when extra power atreduced speeds is required. Theinformation display will display 4Lwhen this mode is selected. This modeis not recommended for use on drypavement. Use this mode for off-roadlow-speed operation or when extrapower is required, such as climbingsteep grades, going through deep sandor pulling a boat out of the water.
Shifting between system modes
Note:Momentarily releasing the acceleratorpedal while a shift in progress messagedisplays will improveengagement/disengagement performance.
Note:Do not perform this operation if therear wheels are slipping.
Note:Some noise may be heard as thesystem shifts or engages; this is normal.
You can move the control from 2H, 4A or4H at a stop or while driving. Theinformation display may display a messageindicating a 4X4 shift is in progress. Oncethe shift is complete the informationdisplay will then display the system modeselected.
Shifting to or from 4L
Note:4L mode is not intended for use ondry pavement.
1. Bring the vehicle to a rolling speed of3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
2. Place the gearshift in neutral (N).

3. Move the 4WD switch to the desiredmode.
The information display will display amessage indicating a 4X4 shift is inprogress. The information display will thendisplay the system mode selected.
If any of the above shift conditions are notmet, the shift will not occur and theinformation display will display informationguiding the driver through the proper rangeof shifting procedures.
If SHIFT DELAYED PULL FORWARD isdisplayed in the information display,transfer case gear tooth blockage ispresent. To alleviate this condition, placethe transmission in a forward gear, movethe vehicle forward approximately 5 ft(2 m), and shift the transmission back toneutral (N) to allow the transfer case tocomplete the range shift.
How Your Vehicle Differs FromOther Vehicles
WARNING
Vehicles with a higher center ofgravity such as utility and four-wheeldrive vehicles handle differently thanvehicles with a lower center of gravity.Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles arenot designed for cornering at speeds ashigh as passenger cars any more thanlow-slung sports cars are designed toperform satisfactorily under off-roadconditions. Avoid sharp turns, excessivespeed and abrupt maneuvers in thesevehicles. Failure to drive cautiously couldresult in an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injury anddeath.
Truck and utility vehicles can differ fromsome other vehicles. Your vehicle may behigher to allow it to travel over roughterrain without getting hung up ordamaging underbody components.
The differences that make your vehicle soversatile also make it handle differentlythan an ordinary passenger car.
Maintain steering wheel control at alltimes, especially in rough terrain. Sincesudden changes in terrain can result inabrupt steering wheel motion, make sureyou grip the steering wheel from theoutside. Do not grip the spokes.
Drive cautiously to avoid vehicle damagefrom concealed objects such as rocks andstumps.
You should either know the terrain orexamine maps of the area before driving.Map out your route before driving in thearea. To maintain steering and brakingcontrol of your vehicle, you must have allfour wheels on the ground and they mustbe rolling, not sliding or spinning.
Driving Off-Road With Truck andUtility Vehicles
Note:On some models, the initial shift fromtwo-wheel drive to four-wheel drive whileyour vehicle is moving can cause somemomentary clunk and ratcheting sounds.This is the front drivetrain coming up tospeed and the automatic locking hubsengaging and is not cause for concern.
Note:Your vehicle may be equipped witha front air dam that can become damaged(due to reduced ground clearance) whentaking your vehicle off-road. You mayremove this air dam by removing eight bolts.
Four-wheel drive vehicles are speciallyequipped for driving on sand, snow, mudand rough terrain and have operatingcharacteristics that are somewhatdifferent from conventional vehicles, bothon and off the road.

PARKING BRAKE
WARNING
Always set the parking brake fullyand make sure the transmission isplaced in park (P). Failure to set theparking brake and engage park could resultin vehicle roll-away, property damage orbodily injury. Turn the ignition to the lockposition and remove the key whenever youleave your vehicle.
Apply the parking brake whenever yourvehicle is parked. Press the pedaldownward to set the parking brake. Thebrake warning lamp in the instrumentcluster will illuminate and remainsilluminated until the parking brake isreleased.
To release, pull the brake release leverlocated at the lower left side of theinstrument panel.
If you are parking your vehicle on a gradeor with a trailer, press and hold the brakepedal down, then set the parking brake.There may be a little vehicle movement asthe parking brake sets to hold the vehicle'sweight. This is normal and should be noreason for concern. If needed, press andhold the service brake pedal down, thentry reapplying the parking brake. Chock thewheels if required. If the parking brakecannot hold the weight of the vehicle, theparking brake may need to be serviced orthe vehicle may be overloaded.
HILL START ASSIST
WARNINGS
The system does not replace theparking brake. When you leave yourvehicle, always apply the parkingbrake and shift the transmission into park(P) (automatic transmission) or first gear(1) (manual transmission).
WARNINGS
You must remain in your vehicle onceyou have activated the system.
During all times, you are responsiblefor controlling your vehicle,supervising the system andintervening, if required.
If the engine is revved excessively, orif a malfunction is detected, thesystem will be deactivated.
The system makes it easier to pull awaywhen your vehicle is on a slope without theneed to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicle willremain stationary on the slope for two tothree seconds after you release the brakepedal. This allows you time to move yourfoot from the brake to the acceleratorpedal. The brakes release automaticallywhen the engine has sufficient torque toprevent your vehicle from rolling down thegrade. This is an advantage when pullingaway on a slope, for example from a carpark ramp, traffic lights or when reversinguphill into a parking space.
The system will activate automatically onany slope that will cause significant vehiclerollback. For vehicles with a manualtransmission, you can switch this featureoff using the information display. SeeInformation Displays (page 91). Thesystem will remain on or off depending onhow it was last set.
Note:There is no warning lamp to indicatethe system is either on or off.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with AutoHold, Hill Start Assist will not be availablewhile Auto Hold is active.

Using Hill Start Assist
1. Bring your vehicle to a completestandstill. Keep the brake pedalpressed and select an uphill gear (forexample, first (1) when facing uphill orreverse (R) when facing downhill).
2. If the sensors detect that your vehicleis on a slope, the system will activateautomatically.
3. When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal, your vehicle will remainon the slope without rolling away forabout two or three seconds. This holdtime will automatically be extended ifyou are in the process of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. Thebrakes will release automatically.
Switching the System On and Off
You can switch this feature on or off if yourvehicle is equipped with a manualtransmission and an information display.See General Information (page 91). Thesystem remembers the last setting whenyou start your vehicle.
If your vehicle is not equipped with amanual transmission and an informationdisplay, you cannot turn the system on oroff. When you switch the ignition on, thesystem automatically turns on.
