WHAT IS THE SELECTIVE
CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM
The selective catalytic reduction system
helps reduce emission levels of oxides of
nitrogen from the exhaust system.
HOW DOES THE SELECTIVE
CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM WORK
The selective catalytic reduction system
injects diesel exhaust fluid into the exhaust
system to enable correct selective catalytic
reduction system function.
SELECTIVE CATALYTIC
REDUCTION SYSTEM
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Keep diesel exhaust
fluid out of reach of children. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing. In
case of contact with your eyes, flush
immediately with water and get prompt
medical attention. In case of contact
with your skin, clean immediately with
soap and water. If you swallow any
diesel exhaust fluid, drink plenty of
water, call a physician immediately. WARNING:
Only refill the diesel
exhaust fluid tank in a well ventilated
area. When you remove the diesel
exhaust fluid tank filler cap or a diesel
exhaust fluid container cap, ammonia
vapors may escape. Ammonia vapors
can be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors
can cause burning to the eyes, throat and
nose and cause coughing and watery
eyes. WARNING:
Diesel exhaust fluid
must be refilled when low or replaced
when contaminated or your vehicle
speed becomes limited to
50 mph
(80 km/h). In these conditions, drive with
caution and refill diesel exhaust fluid
immediately. If the diesel exhaust fluid
becomes empty or contaminated and
fluid is not replaced, your vehicle
becomes limited to engine idle only once
stopped. In these conditions, be cautious
where you stop your vehicle because you
may not be able to drive long distances
or maintain highway speeds until you
refill or replace the diesel exhaust fluid. WARNING:
Tampering with or
disabling the selective catalytic
reduction system results in severe
vehicle performance limitation including
eventual speed limiting to
5 mph
(8 km/h).
Note: Do not put diesel exhaust fluid in the
fuel tank. This can cause damage that your
vehicle Warranty may not cover.
Selective catalytic reduction systems are
sensitive to contamination of the diesel
exhaust fluid. Maintaining the purity of the
fluid is important to avoid system
malfunctions. If you remove or drain the
diesel exhaust fluid tank, do not use the
same fluid to refill the tank. The system
has a sensor to monitor fluid quality.

•
Avoid spilling diesel exhaust fluid on
painted surfaces, carpeting or plastic
components. Immediately wipe away
any diesel exhaust fluid that has spilled
with a damp cloth and water. If it has
already crystallized, use warm water
and a sponge.
• Do not store the diesel exhaust fluid
bottle in your vehicle. If it leaks it could
cause damage to interior components
or release an ammonia odor inside your
vehicle.
• Do not re-use the diesel exhaust fluid
container once it is emptied.
• Store diesel exhaust fluid out of direct
sunlight and in temperatures between
23–68°F (-5– 20°C).
• The system has a diesel exhaust fluid
quality sensor. Dilution of diesel
exhaust fluid or use of any other liquid
in the selective catalytic reduction
system leads to a diesel exhaust fluid
system fault, eventually leading to the
vehicle only operating in idle-only
mode.
• Do not dilute diesel exhaust fluid with
water or any other liquid. FILLING THE SELECTIVE

HOW DOES FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE WORK
Using the Electronic Shift On the
Fly System (If Equipped)
This four-wheel drive system utilizes a
2-speed Electronic Shift On the Fly (ESOF)
transfer case which is also known as a
part-time system. This system offers the
driver two-wheel drive high, four-wheel
drive high, and four-wheel drive low as
available modes of operation. When you
select either four-wheel drive high or
four-wheel drive low, the system provides
mechanically locked four-wheel drive
power to both the front and rear wheels
for use in off-road or slippery conditions
such as deep snow, sand or mud. When
you select four-wheel drive low, the system
provides additional gearing for increased
torque multiplication for conditions like
deep sand, steep slopes, or pulling heavy
objects. Additionally, the system is capable
of recreational flat towing by putting the
transfer case into a neutral position. See
Recreationally Towing Your Vehicle
(page
384). For proper operation, make sure that each
hub is fully engaged and that both hub
locks are set to the same position (both
set to lock or both set to auto). To engage
lock, turn the hub locks completely
clockwise. To engage auto, turn the hub
locks completely counterclockwise.
The ESOF four-wheel drive system:
•
Provides 4x4 High engagement and
disengagement while the vehicle is
moving.
• Operates by a rotary control located
on the instrument panel that allows
you select 4x2, 4x4 High or 4x4 Low
operation.
• Uses auto-manual hub locks that can
be engaged and disengaged
automatically based on the 4x4 mode
you select.
• Increases fuel economy when used in
the hub lock's recommended auto
mode.
Note: Auto-manual hub locks manually
lock by rotating the hub lock control from
auto to lock.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
PRECAUTIONS WARNING:
Vehicles with a higher
center of gravity (utility and four-wheel
drive vehicles) handle differently than
vehicles with a lower center of gravity
(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,
excessive speed and abrupt steering in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously
increases the risk of losing control of your
vehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.

CONNECTING A TRAILER
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not adjust the spring
bars so that your vehicle's rear bumper
is higher than before attaching the trailer.
Doing so will defeat the function of the
weight-distributing hitch, which may
cause unpredictable handling, and could
result in serious personal injury.
Do not tow a trailer until you drive your
vehicle at least 1,000 mi (1,600 km).
Consult your local motor vehicle laws for
towing a trailer.
See the instructions included with towing
accessories for the proper installation and
adjustment specifications.
Service your vehicle more frequently if you
tow a trailer. See
Normal Scheduled
Maintenance (page 625).
If you use a rental trailer, follow the
instructions the rental agency gives you.
When attaching the trailer wiring connector
to your vehicle, only use a proper fitting
connector that works with the vehicle and
trailer functions.
Account for the trailer coupler weight as
part of your vehicle load when calculating
the total vehicle weight.
Do not exceed the load limits. See
Calculating the Load Limit
(page 314). HITCHES
INSTALLING A HITCH WARNING:
You must use the
heavy-duty drawbar pin supplied with
your vehicle when using the heavy-duty
hitch. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Do not use a hitch that either clamps onto
the bumper or attaches to the axle. You
must distribute the load in your trailer so
that 10-15% for conventional towing or
15-25% for fifth wheel towing of the total
weight of the trailer is on the tongue. Do
not exceed the tongue load rating
indicated on the conventional hitch
receiver.
Note: On pick-up trucks, the trailer hitch
provided on this vehicle enhances crash
protection for the fuel system. Do not
remove!
Hitch Components
The following components are required.
Some are provided in certain vehicles.
• A trailer hitch with a 3 inch receiver and
a 5/8 inch hitch pin. Check the
stamped rating number on the pin to
determine the
21,200 lb (9,616 kg) or
24,200 lb (10,976 kg) hitch pin
capacity.
• A hitch pin sleeve stored in the glove
box to use when mounting the 3 inch
drawbar with the 3/4 inch pin hole.
• A cotter pin to help keep the hitch pin
in place.

AUTOMATIC CRASH SHUTOFF
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: If your vehicle has been
involved in a crash, have the fuel system
checked. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in fire, personal injury or
death.
RE-ENABLING YOUR VEHICLE
1. Switch the ignition off.
2. Attempt to start your vehicle.
3. Switch the ignition off.
4. Attempt to start your vehicle.
Note: If your vehicle does not start after the
third attempt, have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible.
RECOVERY TOWING
ACCESSING THE FRONT TOWING
POINT WARNING: Using recovery hooks
is dangerous and should only be done by
a person familiar with proper vehicle
recovery safety practices. Improper use
of recovery hooks may cause hook failure
or separation from the vehicle and could
result in serious injury or death. WARNING:
Slowly remove the
slack from the recovery strap prior to
pulling. Failure to do so can introduce
significantly higher loads which can
cause the recovery hooks to break off, or
the recovery strap to fail which can cause
serious injury or death. WARNING:
Never link two straps
together with a clevis pin. These heavy
metal objects could become projectiles
if the strap breaks and can cause serious
injury or death.
Your vehicle has frame-mounted front
recovery hooks.
Note: Do not apply a load to the recovery
hooks that is greater than the gross vehicle
weight rating of your vehicle.
Before using recovery hooks:
• Make sure all attaching points are
secure and capable of withstanding
the applied load.
• Do not use chains, cables or tow straps
with metal hook ends.
• Only use recovery straps that have a
minimum breaking strength two to
three times the gross vehicle weight of
the stuck vehicle.
• Make sure the recovery strap is in good
condition and free of visible cuts, tears
or damage.
• Use a damper device such as a tarp,
heavy blanket or piece of carpet, and
place it over the recovery strap to help
absorb the energy in the event the
strap breaks.
• Make sure the stuck vehicle is not
loaded heavier than its gross vehicle
weight rating specified on the
certification label.
• Align the tow vehicle and stuck vehicle
in a straight line, within 10 degrees.
• Keep bystanders to the sides of the
vehicle, at a distance of at least twice
the length of the recovery strap. This
helps avoid injury from the hazard of a
recovery hook or strap breaking, or a
vehicle lurching into their path.
