WHEELS
Your vehicle may be equipped with two-piece bolt-together beadlock
rims. Beadlock rims allow the tires to survive operating at lower air
pressure which provide greater traction due to the larger tire-to-ground
contact area during slow, off-road operation. Always reinflate the tires to
the tire manufacturer's recommendations when no longer in slow,
off-road driving conditions. The beadlock also acts as a safety device
ensuring that the tire does not unseat from the rim or rotate on the
wheel when tire pressure is reduced, while also preventing the entry of
foreign objects, debris or water into the tire's air chamber.
Note:The wheel/tire assemblies should be serviced only by trained
personnel who have read and understand the wheel
assembly/disassembly information contained within theWorkshop
Manual.
TIRES
Each tire is equipped with a Variable Function Insert (VFI) which is
mounted into the tire. The VFI insert and tire are then fitted around the
beadlock rim assembly, providing a higher level of tire protection due to
the dense rubber material in the tire assembly and maximum all-terrain
mobility.
SNOW CHAINS
Tire chains cannot be used on vehicles equipped with M/TR tires.
ON-BOARD AIR SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an on-board air system which has
been designed to provide compressed air for multiple uses, including the
addition of air to the vehicle's tires. The system uses a 25 ft. (7.6m)
length of air hose equipped with a clamp-on style air chuck. When not in
use, this hose is secured to the floor of the truck. A compressor,
mounted to the frame under the truck on the passenger side frame rail,
is included along with an air reservoir on the driver side. When the
compressor is on, the output pressure at the air tank is limited to 80 psi
(552 kPa).

Note:If the vehicle does not slow down to below the programmed
speed limit, the tires will automatically inflate to the appropriate
higher terrain setting. Once the higher terrain setting has been
achieved, the OVERSPEED light will stop flashing and the buzzer will
stop.
²Solid:The CTIS is not receiving any speed signals.
5.CHECK TIRESFlashes and a buzzer activates when a low tire or a
significant air system leak is detected.
No display lights

TERRAIN
Allows the driver to select different
tire pressures and vehicle
parameters for unique driving
surfaces/conditions by adjusting tire
pressure. Selecting a terrain setting
will cause the system to run a
pressure check and adjust tire
pressure appropriately. Any terrain
may be selected at any time (within
speed limitations).
Note:When in ªHYº mode,
additional increments do not change tire pressures, but do cause a
pressure check.
Note:When in ªEº mode, additional decrements do not change tire
pressures, but do cause a pressure check.
