Mud– Off road calibration for use on low traction surfaces such as mud. 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. If equipped with air suspension, the level will change to Off-Road 1.
Rock – Off-road calibration only available in 4WD Low range. The vehicle is raised (if
equipped with Air Suspension) for improved ground clearance. 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. If equipped with air suspension, the vehicle level will change
to Off-Road 2. If the Selec-Terrain switch is in ROCK mode, and the transfer case is
switched from 4WD Low to 4WD High, the Selec-Terrain system will return to AUTO.
QUADRA-LIFT
The Quadra-Lift air suspension system provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of being able to adjust vehicle height by the push of a button.
Quadra-Lift is available with both Quadra-Trac II and Quadra-Drive II.
• The system requires that the engine be running for all changes. When lowering
the vehicle all of the doors, including
the liftgate, must be closed.
• The Quadra-Lift air suspension system uses a lifting and lowering pattern
which keeps the headlights from shin-
ing into oncoming traffic. When raising
the vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will
move up first and then the front. When
lowering the vehicle, the front will
move down first and then the rear.
• After the engine is turned off, you may notice that the air suspension system
operates briefly. This is normal. The
system is correcting the position of the
vehicle.
• To assist with changing a spare tire, the Quadra-Lift air suspension system
has a feature which allows the automatic leveling to be disabled. The feature
controls are located in the radio screen. Driving the vehicle over 5 mph (8 km/h)
will return the air suspension to normal operation.
• An audible chime will be heard whenever a system error has been detected.

14. Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle using a suitable tow bar.
15. Release the parking brake.
NOTE:
• Steps 1 through 4 are requirements that must be met before pressing the NEUTRAL (N) button, and must continue to be met until the shift has been
completed. If any of these requirements are not met before pushing the NEUTRAL
(N) button or are no longer met during the shift, then the NEUTRAL (N) indicator
light will flash continuously until all requirements are met or until the NEUTRAL
(N) button is released.
• The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position for a shift to take place and for the position indicator lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the
ON/RUN position, the shift will not take place and no position indicator lights will
be on or flashing.
• A flashing NEUTRAL (N) position indicator light indicates that shift requirements have not been met.
• If the vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift air suspension, the engine should be started and left running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with all the doors closed)
at least once every 24 hours. This process allows the air suspension to adjust the
vehicle’s ride height to compensate for temperature effects.
Shifting Out Of NEUTRAL (N)

Severe Duty All Models
Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty
and off road environment or is operated predominately at idle or only very low engine
RPM’s. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
• Check engine oil level
• Check windshield washer fluid level
• Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual wear or damage
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder and fill asneeded.
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Required Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules on the following pages for required mainte-
nance.
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil Change Indicator System:
• Change oil and filter.
• Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil
indicator system turns on.
• Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as required.
• Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses and park brake.

SRT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The Scheduled Maintenance services listed in this manual must be done at the times
or mileages specified to protect your vehicle warranty and ensure the best vehicle
performance and reliability. More frequent maintenance may be needed for vehicles
in severe operating conditions, such as dusty areas and very short trip driving.
Inspection and service should also be done anytime a malfunction is suspected.
The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in
for scheduled maintenance.
The Driver Information Display (DID) will display an “Oil Change Required” message
and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil change is necessary.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will
illuminate. This means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
NOTE:
• The oil change indicator message will not monitor the time since the last oilchange. Change your vehicle's oil if it has been six months since your last oil
change, even if the oil change indicator message is NOT illuminated.
• Change your engine oil more often if you drive your vehicle off-road for an extended period of time.
• Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 6,000 miles (10,000 km) or six months, whichever comes first.
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing
the scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other
than your authorized dealer, the message can be reset by referring to the steps
described under “Instrument Cluster Warning Lights” in “What To Do In Emergen-
cies” in this guide or “Driver Information Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” in your Owners Manual on the DVD for further information.
