ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II

Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated

Onboard Diagnostic system called OBD II. This

system monitors the performance of the emissions,

engine, and transmission control systems. When

these systems are operating properly, your vehicle

will provide excellent performance and fuel

economy, as well as engine emissions well within

current government regulations.

If any of these systems require service, the OBD II

system will turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light

(MIL). It will also store diagnostic codes and other

information to assist your service technician in

making repairs. Although your vehicle will usually

be driveable and not need towing, see an

authorized dealer for service as soon as possible.

NBOARD

IAGNOSTIC

YSTEM

(OBD II) C

YBERSECURITY

Your vehicle is required to have OBD II and a

connection port to allow access to information

related to the performance of your emissions

controls. Authorized service technicians may need

to access this information to assist with the

diagnosis and service of your vehicle and

emissions system

page 215.

CAUTION!



Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause

further damage to the emission control

system. It could also affect fuel economy and

driveability. The vehicle must be serviced

before any emissions tests can be performed.



If the MIL is flashing while the vehicle is

running, severe catalytic converter damage

and power loss will soon occur. Immediate

service is required.

EMISSIONS INSPECTION AND

MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS

In some localities, it may be a legal requirement to

pass an inspection of your vehicle's emissions

control system. Failure to pass could prevent

vehicle registration.

For states that require an Inspection

and Maintenance (I/M), this check

verifies the Malfunction Indicator Light

(MIL) is functioning and is not on when

the engine is running, and that the OBD II system

is ready for testing.
Normally, the OBD II system will be ready. The OBD

II system may not be ready if your vehicle was

recently serviced, recently had a depleted battery

or a battery replacement. If the OBD II system

should be determined not ready for the I/M test,

your vehicle may fail the test.
Your vehicle has a simple ignition actuated test,

which you can use prior to going to the test station.

To check if your vehicle's OBD II system is ready,

you must do the following:
1. Cycle the ignition switch to the ON position,

but do not crank or start the engine.

NOTE:

If you crank or start the engine, you will have to

start this test over.
2. As soon as you cycle the ignition switch to the

ON position, you will see the Malfunction

Indicator Light (MIL) symbol come on as part of

a normal bulb check.

3. Approximately 15 seconds later, one of two

things will happen:



The MIL will flash for about 10 seconds and

then return to being fully illuminated until

you turn OFF the ignition or start the engine.

This means that your vehicle's OBD II

system is not ready and you should not

proceed to the I/M station.



The MIL will not flash at all and will remain

fully illuminated until you place the ignition

in the off position or start the engine. This

means that your vehicle's OBD II system is

ready and you can proceed to the I/M

station.

If your OBD II system is not ready, you should see

an authorized dealer or repair facility. If your

vehicle was recently serviced or had a battery

failure or replacement, you may need to do nothing

more than drive your vehicle as you normally would

in order for your OBD II system to update. A

recheck with the above test routine may then

indicate that the system is now ready.
Regardless of whether your vehicle's OBD II system

is ready or not, if the MIL is illuminated during

normal vehicle operation you should have your

vehicle serviced before going to the I/M station.

The I/M station can fail your vehicle because the

MIL is on with the engine running.

WARNING!



ONLY an authorized service technician should

connect equipment to the OBD II connection

port in order to read the VIN, diagnose, or

service your vehicle.



If unauthorized equipment is connected to the

OBD II connection port, such as a

driver-behavior tracking device, it may:



Be possible that vehicle systems,

including safety related systems, could be

impaired or a loss of vehicle control could

occur that may result in an accident

involving serious injury or death.



Access, or allow others to access, infor

mation stored in your vehicle systems,

including personal information.

TARTING

The idle speed is controlled automatically, and it

will decrease as the engine warms up.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER — IF EQUIPPED

The engine block heater warms the engine, and

permits quicker starts in cold weather. Connect the

cord to a standard 110-115 Volt AC electrical

outlet with a grounded, three-wire extension cord.
The engine block heater must be plugged in at

least one hour to have an adequate warming effect

on the engine.
The engine block heater cord is coiled and

strapped right behind the engine air cleaner filter

assembly from the manufacturer.

ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS

An initial break-in period is recommended for the

powertrain (engine, transmission, axle, etc.) in your

vehicle. Following the guidelines below will

contribute to improved longevity, fuel economy,

and performance.
Drive moderately during the first 100 miles

(160 km). After that, for the first 500 miles

(800 km), avoid long periods at constant speed.

WARNING!



Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid into

the throttle body air inlet opening in an

attempt to start the vehicle. This could result

in flash fire causing serious personal injury.



Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to

get it started. Vehicles equipped with an auto

matic transmission cannot be started this

way. Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic

converter and once the engine has started,

ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.



If the vehicle has a discharged battery,

booster cables may be used to obtain a start

from a booster battery or the battery in

another vehicle. This type of start can be

dangerous if done improperly

page 331.

CAUTION!

To prevent damage to the starter, do not

continuously crank the engine for more than 10

seconds at a time. Wait 10 to 15 seconds before

trying again.

WARNING!

Remember to disconnect the engine block

heater cord before driving. Damage to the

110-115 Volt electrical cord could cause

electrocution.

132

STARTING AND OPERATING

Varying speed, engine RPM, and throttle position is

desirable.
Avoid high performance, severe off-road, and

towing for the first 500 miles (800km).

NOTE:

A new engine may consume some oil during its first

few thousand miles (km) of operation. This should

be considered a normal part of the break-in and

not interpreted as a problem. For engines not

equipped with an oil level sensor, please check

your oil level frequently during the break-in period.

Add manufacturer-approved oil as required

page 408.

PARKING BRAKE

LECTRIC

ARK

RAKE

(EPB)

Your vehicle is equipped with an EPB that offers

simple operation, and some additional features

that make the parking brake more convenient and

useful.

The parking brake is primarily intended to prevent

the vehicle from rolling while parked. Before

leaving the vehicle, make sure that the parking

brake is applied. Also, be certain to leave the

transmission in PARK.
You can engage the parking brake in two ways:



Manually, by applying the EPB switch.



Automatically, by enabling the Auto Park Brake

feature in the customer programmable features

section of the Uconnect settings.

The EPB switch is located on the instrument panel

to the left of the steering wheel (below the

headlamp switch).

Electric Park Brake Switch

To apply the parking brake manually, pull up on the

switch momentarily. You may hear a sound from

the back of the vehicle while the parking brake

engages. Once the parking brake is fully engaged,

the BRAKE telltale light in the instrument cluster

and an indicator on the switch will illuminate. If

your foot is on the brake pedal while you apply the

parking brake, you may notice a small amount of

brake pedal movement. The parking brake can be

applied even when the ignition switch is OFF but

the BRAKE telltale light will not illuminate,

however, it can only be released when the ignition

is in the ON/RUN position.

NOTE:

The EPB fault light will illuminate if the EPB switch

is held for longer than 20 seconds in either the

released or applied position. The light will extin

guish upon releasing the switch.
If the Auto Park Brake feature is enabled, the

parking brake will automatically engage whenever

the transmission is placed in PARK. If your foot is

on the brake pedal, you may notice a small amount

of brake pedal movement while the parking brake

is engaging.
The parking brake will release automatically when

the ignition is ON, the transmission is in DRIVE or

REVERSE, the driver’s seat belt is buckled, and an

attempt is made to drive away.

CAUTION!

Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral

Oil in the engine or damage may result. ONLY

USE OILS THAT ARE API APPROVED

page 408.

STARTING AND OPERATING

133

(Continued)

To release the parking brake manually, the ignition

switch must be in the ON/RUN position. Put your

foot on the brake pedal, then push the EPB switch

down momentarily. You may hear a sound from the

back of the vehicle while the parking brake

disengages. You may also notice a small amount of

movement in the brake pedal. Once the parking

brake is fully disengaged, the BRAKE telltale light

in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on

the switch will extinguish.

NOTE:

When parking on a hill, it is important to turn the

front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade

and away from the curb on an uphill grade. Apply

the parking brake before placing the gear selector

in PARK, otherwise the load on the transmission

locking mechanism may make it difficult to move

the gear selector out of PARK.

If exceptional circumstances should make it

necessary to engage the parking brake while the

vehicle is in motion, maintain upward pressure on

the EPB switch for as long as engagement is

desired. The BRAKE telltale light will illuminate,

and a continuous chime will sound. The rear stop

lamps will also be illuminated automatically while

the vehicle remains in motion.
To disengage the parking brake while the vehicle is

in motion, release the switch. If the vehicle is

brought to a complete stop using the parking

brake, when the vehicle reaches approximately

3 mph (5 km/h), the parking brake will remain

engaged.

WARNING!



Never use the PARK position as a substitute

for the parking brake. Always apply the

parking brake fully when parked to guard

against vehicle movement and possible injury

or damage.



When exiting the vehicle, always turn the igni

tion off, secure the key fob, and lock your

vehicle.



Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil

dren to be in a vehicle unattended is

dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or

others could be seriously or fatally injured.

Children should be warned not to touch the

parking brake, brake pedal or the gear

selector.



Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,

or in a location accessible to children, and do

not leave a vehicle equipped with Keyless

Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/RUN position. A child

could operate power windows, other controls,

or move the vehicle.



Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged

before driving; failure to do so can lead to a

brake failure and a collision.



Always fully apply the parking brake when

leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and cause

damage or injury. Also be certain to leave the

transmission in PARK. Failure to do so may

allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or

injury.

WARNING!

CAUTION!

If the Brake System Warning Light remains on

with the parking brake released, a brake system

malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system

serviced by an authorized dealer immediately.

WARNING!

Driving the vehicle with the parking brake

engaged, or repeated use of the parking brake

to slow the vehicle, may cause serious damage

to the brake system. Be sure the parking brake

is fully disengaged before driving; failure to do

so can lead to brake failure and a collision.

134

STARTING AND OPERATING

In the unlikely event of a malfunction of the EPB

system, a yellow EPB fault light will illuminate. This

may be accompanied by the BRAKE telltale light

flashing. In this event, urgent service of the EPB

system is required. Do not rely on the parking

brake to hold the vehicle stationary.

Auto Park Brake

The EPB can be programmed to be applied

automatically whenever the vehicle is at a

standstill and the transmission is placed in PARK.

Auto Park Brake is enabled and disabled by

customer selection through the customer

programmable features section of the Uconnect

Settings

page 232.

Any single Auto Park Brake application can be

bypassed by pushing the EPB switch to the release

position while the transmission is placed in PARK.

SafeHold

SafeHold is a safety feature of the EPB system that

will engage the parking brake automatically if the

vehicle is left unsecured while the ignition is in ON/

The parking brake will automatically engage if all of

the following conditions are met:



The vehicle is at a standstill.



There is no attempt to press the brake pedal or

accelerator pedal.



The seat belt is unbuckled.



The driver’s door is open.

SafeHold can be temporarily bypassed by pushing

the EPB switch while the driver’s door is open.

Once manually bypassed, SafeHold will be enabled

again once the vehicle reaches 12 mph (20 km/h)

or the ignition is turned to the OFF position and

back to ON again.

Hold ‘N Go — If Equipped

Hold ‘N Go is a comfort feature that allows the

driver to remove their foot from the brake pedal

once the vehicle has come to a stop. The vehicle

must be held at a standstill for a predetermined

amount of time by hydraulic braking. The EPB will

then engage and continue to hold the vehicle at a

stop until the driver applies the accelerator pedal.

Hold ‘N Go can be activated or deactivated by

pushing the AUTO HOLD button located on the

switch bank.

Brake Maintenance Mode

We recommend having your brakes serviced by an

authorized dealer. You should only make repairs

for which you have the knowledge and the right

equipment. You should only enter Brake

Maintenance mode during brake service.
When servicing your rear brakes, it may be

necessary for you or your technician to push the

rear piston into the rear caliper bore. With the EPB

system, this can only be done after retracting the

EPB actuator. Fortunately, actuator retraction can

be done easily by entering the Brake Maintenance

mode through the Uconnect Settings in your

vehicle. This menu-based system will guide you

through the steps necessary to retract the EPB

actuator in order to perform rear brake service.
Maintenance mode has requirements that must be

met in order to be activated:



The vehicle must be at a standstill.



The parking brake must be unapplied.



The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL.

While in Maintenance mode, the EPB fault lamp

will flash continuously while the ignition is ON.

When brake service work is complete, the following

steps must be followed to reset the parking brake

system to normal operation:



Ensure the vehicle is at a standstill.



Press the brake pedal with moderate force.



Apply the EPB switch.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

You must press and hold the brake pedal while

shifting out of PARK.

WARNING!

You can be badly injured working on or around a

complete stop before shifting to PARK, and

verify that the transmission gear position indi

cator solidly indicates PARK without blinking.

Ensure that the vehicle is completely stopped,

and the PARK position is properly indicated,

before exiting the vehicle.



It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or

NEUTRAL (N) if the engine speed is higher

than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly

pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could

accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. You

could lose control of the vehicle and hit

someone or something. Only shift into gear

when the engine is idling normally and your

foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.

STARTING AND OPERATING

GNITION

ARK

NTERLOCK

This vehicle is equipped with an Ignition Park

Interlock which requires the transmission to be in

PARK (P) before the ignition can be turned to the

OFF position. This helps the driver avoid

inadvertently leaving the vehicle without placing

the transmission in PARK. This system also locks

the transmission in PARK whenever the ignition is

in the OFF position.

NOTE:

The transmission is NOT locked in PARK when the

ignition is in the ON/RUN position (even though the

engine will be off). Ensure that the transmission is

in PARK, and the ignition is OFF (not in ON/RUN

position) before exiting the vehicle.

This vehicle is equipped with a BTSI system that

holds the transmission gear selector in PARK

unless the brakes are applied. To shift the

transmission out of PARK, the engine must be

running and the brake pedal must be pressed. The

brake pedal must also be pressed to shift from

NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE when the vehicle

is stopped or moving at low speeds.

RANSMISSION

The transmission is controlled using a rotary

electronic gear selector located on the center

console. The transmission gear range (PRND) is

displayed both above the gear selector and in the

instrument cluster. To select a gear range, simply

rotate the gear selector. You must press the brake

pedal to shift the transmission out of PARK (or

NEUTRAL, when the vehicle is stopped or moving at

low speeds). To shift past multiple gear ranges at

once (such as PARK to DRIVE), simply rotate the

gear selector to the appropriate detent. Select the

DRIVE range for normal driving.



Unintended movement of a vehicle could

injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all

vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while

the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle,

always come to a complete stop, then apply

the parking brake, shift the transmission into

PARK, and turn the ignition OFF. When the

ignition is in the OFF position, the transmis

sion is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle

against unwanted movement.



When exiting the vehicle, always make sure

the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the

key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.



Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil

dren to be in a vehicle unattended is

dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or

others could be seriously or fatally injured.

Children should be warned not to touch the

parking brake, brake pedal or the transmis

sion gear selector.



Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle

(or in a location accessible to children), and do

not leave the ignition in the ON/RUN position.

A child could operate power windows, other

controls, or move the vehicle.

WARNING!

CAUTION!

Damage to the transmission may occur if the

following precautions are not observed:



Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE (R) only

after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.



Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE,

NEUTRAL, or DRIVE (D) when the engine is

above idle speed.



Before shifting into any gear, make sure your

foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.

STARTING AND OPERATING

137

(Continued)

NOTE:

In the event of a mismatch between the gear

selector position and the actual transmission gear

(for example, driver selects PARK while driving),

the position indicator will blink continuously until

the selector is returned to the proper position, or

the requested shift can be completed.
The electronically controlled transmission adapts

its shift schedule based on driver inputs, along

with environmental and road conditions. The

transmission electronics are self-calibrating;

therefore, the first few shifts on a new vehicle may

be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal condition,

and precision shifts will develop within a few

hundred miles (kilometers).
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 between these gears.
The transmission gear selector has only PARK,

REVERSE, NEUTRAL, and DRIVE positions.

Manual downshifts can be made using the

Electronic Range Select (ERS) shift control.

Pushing the GEAR “-”/GEAR “+” switches (on the

steering wheel) while in the DRIVE position will

select the highest available transmission gear,

and will display that gear limit in the instrument

cluster as 1, 2, 3, etc. Some models will display

both the selected gear limit, and the actual

current gear, while in ERS mode.

Transmission Gear Selector

Gear Ranges

Do not press the accelerator pedal when shifting

from PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) into another gear

range.

NOTE:

After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to

allow the selected gear to engage before acceler

ating. This is especially important when the engine

is cold.

PARK (P)

This range supplements the parking brake by

locking the transmission. The engine can be

started in this range. Never attempt to use PARK

while the vehicle is in motion. Apply the parking

brake when exiting the vehicle in this range.

When parking on a hill, apply the parking brake

before shifting the transmission to PARK. As an

added precaution, turn the front wheels toward the

curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb

on an uphill grade.
When exiting the vehicle, always:



Apply the parking brake.



Shift the transmission into PARK.



Turn the ignition OFF.



Remove the key fob from the vehicle.

NOTE:

On four-wheel drive vehicles be sure that the

transfer case is in a drive position.

WARNING!



Never use the PARK (P) position as a substi

tute for the parking brake. Always apply the

parking brake fully when exiting the vehicle to

guard against vehicle movement and possible

injury or damage.



Your vehicle could move and injure you and

others if it is not in PARK. Check by trying to

move the transmission gear selector out of

PARK with the brake pedal released. Make

sure the transmission is in PARK before

exiting the vehicle.

138

STARTING AND OPERATING

(Continued)

The following indicators should be used to ensure

that you have properly engaged the transmission

into the PARK position:



Look at the transmission gear position display

and verify that it indicates the PARK position (P),

and is not blinking.



With the brake pedal released, verify that the

gear selector will not move out of PARK.

REVERSE (R)

This range is for moving the vehicle backward.

Shift into REVERSE only after the vehicle has come

to a complete stop.

NEUTRAL (N)

Use this range when the vehicle is standing for

prolonged periods with the engine running. Apply

the parking brake and shift the transmission into

PARK (P) if you must exit the vehicle.



The transmission may not engage PARK if the

vehicle is moving. Always bring the vehicle to a

complete stop before shifting to PARK, and

verify that the transmission gear position indi

cator solidly indicates PARK without blinking.

Ensure that the vehicle is completely stopped,

and the PARK position is properly indicated,

before exiting the vehicle.



It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or

NEUTRAL (N) if the engine speed is higher

than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly

pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could

accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. You

could lose control of the vehicle and hit

someone or something. Only shift into gear

when the engine is idling normally and your

foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.



Unintended movement of a vehicle could

injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all

vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while

the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle,

always come to a complete stop, then apply

the parking brake, shift the transmission into

PARK, and turn the ignition OFF. When the

ignition is in the OFF position, the transmis

sion is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle

against unwanted movement.

WARNING!



When exiting the vehicle, always make sure

the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the

key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.



Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil

dren to be in a vehicle unattended is

dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or

others could be seriously or fatally injured.

Children should be warned not to touch the

parking brake, brake pedal or the transmis

sion gear selector.



Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle

(or in a location accessible to children), and do

not leave the ignition in the ON/RUN position.

A child could operate power windows, other

controls, or move the vehicle.

CAUTION!



Before moving the transmission gear selector

out of PARK, you must start the engine, and

also press the brake pedal. Otherwise,

damage to the gear selector could result.



DO NOT race the engine when shifting from

PARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as

this can damage the drivetrain.

WARNING!

Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the

ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe

practices that limit your response to changing

traffic or road conditions. You might lose control

of the vehicle and have a collision.

STARTING AND OPERATING

139

DRIVE (D)

This range should be used for most city and

highway driving. It provides the smoothest upshifts

and downshifts, and the best fuel economy. The

transmission automatically upshifts through all

forward gears.
When frequent transmission shifting occurs (such

as when operating the vehicle under heavy loading

conditions, in hilly terrain, traveling into strong

head winds, or while towing a heavy trailer), use

the Electronic Range Select (ERS) shift control to

select a lower gear

page 139. Under these

conditions, using a lower gear will improve

performance and extend transmission life by

reducing excessive shifting and heat build-up.
During cold temperatures, transmission operation

may be modified depending on engine and

transmission temperature as well as vehicle

speed. This feature improves warm-up time of the

engine and transmission to achieve maximum

efficiency. Engagement of the torque converter

clutch is inhibited until the transmission fluid is

warm. Normal operation will resume once the

transmission temperature has risen to a suitable

level.

Transmission Limp Home Mode

Transmission function is monitored electronically

for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected

that could result in transmission damage,

Transmission Limp Home mode is activated. In this

mode, the transmission may operate only in

certain gears, or may not shift at all. Vehicle

performance may be severely degraded and the

engine may stall. In some situations, the

transmission may not re-engage if the engine is

turned off and restarted. The Malfunction Indicator

Light (MIL) may be illuminated. A message in the

instrument cluster will inform the driver of the

more serious conditions, and indicate what actions

may be necessary.
In the event of a momentary problem, the

transmission can be reset to regain all forward

gears by performing the following steps:

NOTE:

In cases where the instrument cluster message

indicates the transmission may not re-engage after

engine shutdown, perform this procedure only in a

desired location (preferably, at an authorized

dealer).

1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK (P), if

possible. If not, shift the transmission to

NEUTRAL (N).

3. Push and hold the ignition switch until the

engine turns off.

4. Wait approximately 30 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the

problem is no longer detected, the

transmission will return to normal operation.

NOTE:

Even if the transmission can be reset, we

recommend that you visit an authorized dealer at

your earliest possible convenience. An authorized

dealer has diagnostic equipment to assess the

condition of your transmission.
If the transmission cannot be reset, authorized

dealer service is required.

Electronic Range Select (ERS) Operation

The ERS shift control allows the driver to limit the

highest available gear when the transmission is in

DRIVE and ERS mode is not active. For example, if

you set the transmission gear limit to FOURTH

gear, the transmission will not shift above FOURTH

gear (except to prevent engine overspeed), but will

shift through the lower gears normally.

CAUTION!

Towing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any

other reason with the transmission in NEUTRAL

can cause severe transmission damage.
For Recreational Towing see

page 208.

For Towing A Disabled Vehicle see

page 337.

140

STARTING AND OPERATING

You can switch between DRIVE and ERS mode at

any vehicle speed. When the transmission gear

selector is in DRIVE, the transmission will operate

automatically, shifting between all available gears.

Tapping the “-” button (on the steering wheel) will

activate ERS mode, display the current gear in the

instrument cluster, and set that gear as the top

available gear. Once in ERS mode, tapping the “-”

or “+” button will change the top available gear.

Electronic Range Select (ERS)

To exit ERS mode, simply push and hold the “+”

button until the gear limit display disappears from

the instrument cluster.

When to Use TOW/HAUL Mode

Select TOW/HAUL mode when driving in conditions

such as: driving in hilly areas, towing a trailer,

carrying a heavy load, etc. This mode will improve

performance and reduce the potential for

transmission overheating or failure due to

excessive shifting.

TOW/HAUL Switch

The TOW/HAUL Indicator Light will illuminate in the

instrument cluster to indicate that TOW/HAUL

mode has been activated. Pushing the switch a

second time restores normal operation. Normal

operation is always the default at engine start-up.

If TOW/HAUL mode is desired, the switch must be

pushed each time the engine is started.

WARNING!

Do not downshift for additional engine braking

on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could

lose their grip and the vehicle could skid,

causing a collision or personal injury.

WARNING!

Do not use the “TOW/HAUL” feature when

driving in icy or slippery conditions. The

increased engine braking can cause the rear

wheels to slide, and the vehicle to swing around

with the possible loss of vehicle control, which

may cause an accident possibly resulting in

personal injury or death.
