FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
• This vehicle has two full time, on-demand, four-wheel-drive (4WD) systemsavailable, Freedom Drive I and Freedom-Drive II. They provide for all-weather,
all-terrain capability for added driving security in less-than-ideal road conditions.
Freedom-Drive I™ Four Wheel Drive System
• The vehicle will constantly monitor wheel slippage and transfer power to the axle that can use it the most.
• For additional traction in sand, deep snow or loose traction surfaces, the “4WD Lock” sends equal amounts of the torque to the front and rear axles at low speeds.
• To activate, pull the T-handle, located in between the front driver and passenger seats, up once and release. The “4WD Indicator Light” will come on in the cluster.

Trail Rated
®Freedom-Drive II™Four Wheel Drive System (IF EQUIPPED) • This system offers all the benefits of Freedom Drive I™ plusthe rugged capability of true Trail-Rated off road performance
with three additional features:
• Off-Road Mode
• Pulling up on the T-handle while the gear shift lever is in the Low position activates the Off-Road mode.
• This feature allows power to be sent to all four wheels when additional traction is required while also delivering enhanced off-road capability for water fording,
moving on steep grades and rock crawling.
• Brake Lock Differential
• This feature helps keep the vehicle moving forward when one wheel loses traction by directing power from the wheel that slips to the wheel with more grip on the
same axle providing more traction in off-road situations.
• Hill Descent Control/Hill Start Assist
• The Hill Descent Control System maintains vehicle speed while descending hills during off-road driving situations and is available in both low and reverse gears.
• This allows a smooth and controlled hill descent on rough or slippery terrain without the driver needing to touch the brake pedal.
• The Hill Start Assist system assists the driver when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill.

Oil Change Indicator
Message
• If an “oil change” message (shown as CHANgE OIL) appears and a single chimesounds, it is time for your next required oil change.
Resetting The Light After Servicing
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start engine).
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal three times within 10 seconds.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
• In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, place the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not increase engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to floor and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a
supplement to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling
system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off
immediately, and call for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open
the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
