Using the Front and Rear
Differential Lock
When engaged, the front and rear
differential lock provides additional
traction to your vehicle by forcing either
the two rear wheels or two front wheels to
turn at the same speed.
You can activate and deactivate the front
and rear differential lock on the fly within
the operating speed range. See Electronic
Locking Differential (page 190).
Using Trail Control
The system works in a similar manner to
cruise control in off-road conditions. Trail
Control provides you the ability to
maneuver the vehicle without using the
throttle and brake pedals.
Trail Control allows you to set a speed
between 1 mph (1.6 km/h) to 14 mph
(23 km/h) in a forward motion and 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) to 5 mph (8 km/h) in reverse.
The system controls acceleration and
braking in difficult off-road environments,
which allows you to focus on steering. See
Trail Control (page 207).
Trail Control Performance:
• Manages wheel slip to maximize
traction.
• Removes the need for you to use both
feet when driving in off-road situations.
• Provides braking to maximize traction
in descents.
• Gives you confidence in difficult
environments.
Using Trail One Pedal Drive
Trail one pedal drive coordinates
propulsive and braking torque through your
application of the accelerator pedal to
simulate a two footed driving technique.
Use this when driving over large obstacles,
such as rocks or logs, to help maintain a
constant vehicle speed.
In 4H, the system offers lift pedal braking
and auto hill hold functionality. See What
Is Trail One Pedal Drive (page 208).
Note: Trail one pedal drive is only available
when the vehicle is in 4H or 4L.
Using Trail Turn Assist
The feature reduces the turn radius of the
vehicle on off-road surfaces.
The system reduces driver effort to
negotiate difficult off-road terrain by
allowing the vehicle to make a tight turn
in a single maneuver that might otherwise
require a three point turn. See Trail Turn
Assist (page 212).
Note: Trail turn assist is only available when
the vehicle is in 4H or 4L.
Note: Trail turn assist cannot activate if the
rear differential is locked.
What Are Rock Rails (If Equipped)
Rock rails protect the rocker and body side
from damage and provide a sliding surface
to allow the vehicle to cross boulders and
rock ledges.
Rock rails also can act as a pivot point to
sharply turn the vehicle in tight spaces with
high walls or rocks present.
AFTER DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
OFF-ROAD
WARNING: After off-road use,
before returning to the road, check the
wheels and tires for damage. Off-road
use may cause damage to your wheels
and tires that can lead to tire failure, loss
of vehicle control, serious injury or death.
