• Shifting into or out of Rear E-Locker is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch teeth alignment and
shift completion to occur. The preferred method is for the vehicle to be rolling,
below 15 MPH (24 km/h), while including right and left steering maneuvers to
allow for the clutch teeth to align.
• The Rear E-Locker System must be disengaged prior to taking the vehicle out of
4X4 LOW range. If 4X4 LOW shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a message will
flash from the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Driver Information
Display with instructions on how to complete the requested shift.
SELEC-TERRAIN™
• Selec-Terrain™ combines the capa-
bilities of the vehicle control systems,
along with driver input, to provide the
best performance for all terrains.
Rotate the mode control knob to select
the following Selec-Terrain™ positions:
•Auto— Fully automatic full time four-
wheel drive operation can be used on
and off road. Balances traction with
seamless steering feel to provide im-
proved handling and acceleration over
two-wheel drive vehicles.
•Snow— Tuning set for additional sta-
bility in inclement weather. Use on and
off road on loose traction surfaces such
as snow. When in SNOW mode (depending on certain operating conditions), the
transmission may use second gear (rather than first gear) during launches, to
minimize wheel slippage.
•Sport— This mode alters the transmission's automatic shift schedule for sportier
driving. Upshift speeds are increased to make full use of available engine power.
•Sand/Mud— Off road calibration for use on low traction surfaces such as mud,
sand, or wet grass. Driveline is maximized for traction. Some binding may be felt
on less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls are set to limit traction
control management of throttle and wheel spin.
•Rock— Off-road calibration only available in 4WD LOW range. Traction based
tuning with improved steer-ability for use on high traction off-road surfaces.
Activate the Hill Descent Control for steep downhill control. Use for low speed
obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc.
NOTE:
SPORT mode is not available when 4X4 LOW is selected.
