HOW DOES FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE WORK
Using the Electronic Shift On theFly System (If Equipped)
This four-wheel drive system utilizes a2-speed Electronic Shift On the Fly (ESOF)transfer case which is also known as apart-time system. This system offers thedriver two-wheel drive high, four-wheeldrive high, and four-wheel drive low asavailable modes of operation. When youselect either four-wheel drive high orfour-wheel drive low, the system providesmechanically locked four-wheel drivepower to both the front and rear wheelsfor use in off-road or slippery conditionssuch as deep snow, sand or mud. Whenyou select four-wheel drive low, the systemprovides additional gearing for increasedtorque multiplication for conditions likedeep sand, steep slopes, or pulling heavyobjects. Additionally, the system is capableof recreational flat towing by putting thetransfer case into a neutral position. SeeRecreationally Towing Your Vehicle(page 427).
There is further information available ondriving in unique driving conditions. SeeOff-Road Driving (page 412).
Your vehicle has manual hub locks on thedriver side and passenger side of yourvehicle. For proper operation, make surethat each hub is fully engaged and thatboth hub locks are set to the same position(both set to lock or both set to auto). Toengage lock, turn the hub locks completelyclockwise. To engage auto, turn the hublocks completely counterclockwise.
The ESOF four-wheel drive system:
•Provides 4x4 High engagement anddisengagement while the vehicle ismoving.
•Operates by a push button controllocated on the instrument panel thatallows you select 4x2, 4x4 High or 4x4Low operation.
•Uses auto-manual hub locks. When setto auto, the hubs engage anddisengage automatically based on the4x4 mode you select. When set to lock,the hubs remain engaged at all times.
•Increases fuel economy when used inthe hub lock's recommended automode.
Note:Auto-manual hub locks manuallylock by rotating the hub lock control fromauto to lock.
Note:Hub locks should be in auto modewhen in 4x2 mode. If hub locks are in lockmode in 4x2 mode, there will be additionalnoise from the front axle.

WHAT IS THE ELECTRONIC
LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
The electronic locking differential is adevice housed in the rear axle and whenactivated, allows both wheels on that axleto turn at the same speed. The electroniclocking differential provides additionaltraction should your vehicle become stuck.
HOW DOES THE ELECTRONIC
LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
WORK
You can activate the differentialelectronically and shift it on the fly withinthe operating speed range. The electronicdifferential disengages when the vehiclespeed exceeds a set value and it reengageswhen the vehicle speed drops below a setvalue. See Switching the ElectronicLocking Differential On and Off (page245). The electronic locking differentialcould engage based on certain selecteddrive modes. See Selecting a Drive Mode(page 311). The electronic lockingdifferential is for use in mud, rocks, sand,or any off-road condition where you needmaximum traction.
Note:The electronic locking differential isfor off-road use only and is not for use ondry pavement. Using the electronic lockingdifferential on dry pavement results inincreased tire wear, noise and vibration.
Note:The electronic locking differentialactivates or deactivates automaticallybased on speed, four-wheel drive mode, anddrive mode selection. See Switching theElectronic Locking Differential On andOff (page 245).
ELECTRONIC LOCKING
DIFFERENTIAL PRECAUTIONS
Operating the Electronic LockingDifferential with a Spare orMismatched Tires
On vehicles with an electronic lockingdifferential, the size of the spare tire canaffect performance of the system. If thereis a significant difference between the tworear tires, you may have limited electroniclocking differential functionality. If thesystem has difficulty disengaging, releasethe accelerator pedal and turn the steeringwheel in the opposite direction whenrolling. We recommend engaging anddisengaging the electronic lockingdifferential at a stop when you mount aspare on the rear axle.
