Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pres-
sure (those in a different color in the instru-
ment cluster graphic) to the vehicle’s recom-
mended cold placard pressure value. Once
the system receives the updated tire pres-
sures, the system will automatically update,
the pressure values in the graphic display in
the instrument cluster will return to their
original color, and the “Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light” will turn off.NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may
need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi
(28 kPa) above the recommended cold plac-
ard pressure in order to turn the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light off. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 10 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.
Service TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. The system fault will also sound a
chime. In addition, the instrument cluster
will display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" mes-
sage for a minimum of five seconds and then
display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure
value to indicate which sensor is not being
received.
If the ignition key is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still
exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
no longer flash, and the “SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM” message will no longer display, and a
pressure value will display in place of the
dashes. A system fault can occur due to any
of the following:
• Jamming due to electronic devices or driv-
ing next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
• Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
• Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare or Non-Matching
Full Size Spare
1. The compact spare tire or non-matching full size does not have a tire pressure
monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS
will not monitor the pressure in the com-
pact spare tire.
2. If you install the compact or non- matching full size spare tire in place of a
road tire that has a pressure below the
low-pressure warning limit, upon the next
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warning
85

ignition key cycle, the “TPMS Telltale
Light” will remain on and a chime will
sound. In addition, the graphic in the
instrument cluster will still display a dif-
ferent color pressure value.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 10 min- utes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the “TPMS
Telltale Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will dis-
play a “Service Tire Pressure System”
message for five seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value.
4. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime will sound, the “TPMS Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid, and the instru-
ment cluster will display a “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM” message for five seconds
and then display dashes (- -) in place of
the pressure value.
5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in
place of the compact spare or non-
matching full size, the TPMS will update
automatically. In addition, the “TPMS Telltale Light” will turn off and the
graphic in the instrument cluster will dis-
play a new pressure value instead of
dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is
below the low-pressure warning limit in
any of the four active road tires. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this
information.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with wheel and tire assemblies that do not
have TPMS Sensors, such as when installing
winter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Moni-
toring (TPM) Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The
TPMS will chime, the "TPM Telltale Light"
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on. The instrument cluster will dis-
play the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
and then display dashes (--) in place of the
pressure values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the
TPMS will no longer chime or display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message in the
instrument cluster but dashes (--) will remain
in place of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires equipped with TPM sensors. Then, drive
the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the
"TPM Telltale Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then turn off. The instrument
cluster will display the “SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM” message and then display pressure
values in place of the dashes. On the next
ignition cycle the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message will no longer be displayed as long
as no system fault exists.

some vehicle and driveline combinations uti-
lize 9th gear only in very specific driving
situations and conditions.
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE
when the accelerator pedal is released and
the vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your
foot on the brake pedal when shifting be-
tween these gears.
The transmission gear selector provides
PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and
Electronic Range Select (ERS) shift posi-
tions. Manual downshifts can be made using
the ERS shift control. Moving the gear selec-
tor into the ERS (-/+) position (beside the
DRIVE position) activates ERS mode, dis-
plays the current gear in the instrument clus-
ter, and prevents automatic upshifts beyond
this gear. In ERS mode, toggling the gear
selector forward (-) or rearward (+) will
change the highest available gear.
Refer to “Electronic Range Select (ERS) Op-
eration” in the Owner’s Manual.NOTE:
If the gear selector cannot be moved to the
PARK, REVERSE, or NEUTRAL position
(when pushed forward) it is probably in the
ERS (+/-) position (beside the DRIVE posi-
tion). In ERS mode, the transmission gear
limit (1, 2, 3, etc.) is displayed in the instru-
ment cluster. Move the gear selector to the
right (into the DRIVE [D] position) for access
to PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL.FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
OPERATION
1-Speed Four-Wheel Drive (4X4) —
If Equipped
This feature provides on-demand four-wheel
drive (4X4). The system is automatic with no
driver inputs or additional driving skills re-
quired. Under normal driving conditions, the
front wheels provide most of the traction. If
the front wheels begin to lose traction, power
is shifted automatically to the rear wheels.
The greater the front wheel traction loss, the
greater the power transfer to the rear wheels.

NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a
message will flash from the instrument clus-
ter display with instructions on how to com-
plete the requested shift. Refer to “Instru-
ment Cluster Display” in “Getting To know
Your Instrument Panel” for further informa-
tion.
Shifting Out Of 4X4 LOW
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to
5 km/h), the ignition in the ON mode and the
engine running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and push the “4WD LOW” button
once. The “4WD LOW” indicator light in the
instrument cluster will flash and go out when
the shift is complete.
NOTE:
• If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, amessage will flash from the instrument
cluster display with instructions on how to
complete the requested shift. Refer to “In-
strument Cluster Display” in “Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
•
Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible
with the vehicle completely stopped; however,
difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch
teeth not being properly aligned. Several at-
tempts may be required for clutch teeth align-
ment and shift completion to occur. The pre-
ferred method is with the vehicle rolling 0 to
3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is moving
faster than 3 mph (5 km/h), the 4WD system
will not allow the shift.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
WARNING!
You or others could be injured or killed if
you leave the vehicle unattended with the
power transfer unit in the NEUTRAL (N)
position without first fully engaging the
parking brake. The NEUTRAL (N) position
disengages both the front and rear drive-
shafts from the powertrain and will allow
the vehicle to roll, even if the automatic
transmission is in PARK (or manual trans-
mission is in gear). The parking brake
should always be applied when the driver
is not in the vehicle.
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop on level ground and shift the automatic
transmission to PARK.
2. Turn the engine OFF.
3. Turn the ignition to the ON/RUN mode, but do not start the engine.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal.
Selec-Terrain Switch

2. The ignition in the ON mode and theengine running.
3. To disengage Rear E-Locker, push the REAR LOCK button once.
NOTE:
• It may also be necessary to drive slowly steering back and forth to complete en-
gagement and disengagement of the
E-Locker.
• When engaging Rear E-Locker, the indica- tor lights in the instrument cluster and on
the REAR LOCK button will begin to flash.
When the shift is complete the REAR LOCK
indicator lights will remain on.
• When disengaging Rear E-Locker, the indi- cator lights in the instrument cluster and on
the REAR LOCK button will begin to flash.
When the shift is complete the REAR LOCK
indicator lights will remain off.
• 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 prop-
erly aligned. Several attempts may be re-
quired 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 disen- gaged prior to taking the vehicle out of 4WD
LOW range. If 4WD LOW shift conditions/
interlocks are not met, a message will flash
from the instrument cluster display with
instructions on how to complete the re-
quested shift.
SELEC-TERRAIN
Description
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of
the vehicle control systems, along with driver
input, to provide the best performance for all
terrains.
Rotate the Selec-Terrain knob to select the
desired mode. Selec-Terrain offers the following modes:
•
Auto — Fully automatic full time four-wheel
drive operation can be used on and off road.
Balances traction with seamless steering
feel to provide improved handling and ac-
celeration over two-wheel drive vehicles.
• Snow — Tuning set for additional stability
in inclement weather. Use on and off road
on loose traction surfaces such as snow.
When in SNOW mode (depending on cer-
Selec-Terrain Switch
135

tain operating conditions), the transmis-
sion may use second gear (rather than first
gear) during launches, to minimize wheel
slippage.
• Sport — This mode alters the transmis-
sion's automatic shift schedule for sportier
driving. Upshift speeds are increased to
make full use of available engine power.
NOTE:
SPORT mode is not available when 4WD LOW
is selected.
• Sand/Mud — Off-road calibration for use on
low traction surfaces such as mud, sand, or
wet grass. Driveline is maximized for trac-
tion. 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. Use for low
speed obstacles such as large rocks, deep
ruts, etc. NOTE:
• Rock mode is only available on the vehicles
equipped with the Off-Road package.
• Activate the Hill Descent Control or Selec Speed Control for steep downhill control.
See “Electronic Brake Control System” in
“Safety” for further information.
STOP/START SYSTEM —

accelerator pedal will automatically restart
the engine.
This vehicle has been upgraded with a Heavy
Duty Battery, Starter, as well as other engine
parts, to handle the Additional engine starts.
Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every
normal customer engine start. At that time,
the system will go into STOP/START READY
and if all other conditions are met, can go
into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Au-
tostop” mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following
Must Occur:
• The system must be in STOP/STARTREADY state. A STOP/START READY mes-
sage will be displayed in the instrument
cluster display within the Stop/Start sec-
tion. Refer to “Warning Lights And Mes-
sages” in “Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel” in your Owner’s Manual.
• The vehicle must be completely stopped.
• The gear selector must be in a forward gear and the brake pedal depressed.
The engine will shut down, the tachometer
will move to the zero position and the Stop/
Start telltale will illuminate indicating you
are in Autostop. Customer settings will be
maintained upon return to an engine running
condition.

the engine will not stop:
• Driver’s seat belt is not buckled.
• Driver’s door is not closed.
• Battery temperature is too warm or cold.
• The vehicle is on a steep grade.
• Cabin heating or cooling is in process and
an acceptable cabin temperature has not
been achieved. • HVAC is set to full defrost mode at a high
blower speed.
• Engine has not reached normal operating temperature.
• Battery charge is low.
• The transmission is not in DRIVE (auto- matic transmission) or NEUTRAL (manual
transmission).
• Hood is open.
• Vehicle is in 4LO transfer case mode.
• Exhaust system regeneration in process.
Other Factors Which Can Inhibit Autostop In-
clude:
• Fuel level.
• Accelerator pedal input (automatic trans- mission only).
• Engine temperature too high.
It may be possible for the vehicle to be driven
several times without the STOP/START sys-
tem going into a STOP/START READY state
under more extreme conditions of the items
listed above.
