Rear Axle Differential Lock Control
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has a
controlled traction or
locking differential axle, the
control is located at the
lower right corner of the
instrument panel. You’ll see
this control on single rear
axle vehicles.
If you’re approaching a slippery surface where it looks
like one or even both wheels may start to slip, you can
use this control. It locks your rear differential so that
power is transmitted equally to both rear wheels.
Let up on the accelerator before you turn on your rear
axle differential lock.
NOTICE:
Activating the rear-axle differential lock when
the rear wheels are actually spinning freely, as
they might on ice or snow, can cause you to lose
control of the vehicle. It can also damage the axle.
Turn on this control only when the wheels are not
spinning freely.
