SELEC-TERRAIN IF
EQUIPPED
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of
the vehicle control systems, along with driver
input, to provide the best performance for all
terrains.
Mode Selection Guide
Rotate the Selec-Terrain knob to select the
desired mode.
AUTO: This four-wheel drive operation is a
continuous operation, is fully automatic
and can be used on and off road. This
mode balances traction to ensure maneu-
verability and acceleration improvement
compared to a vehicle with two wheel
drive. This mode also reduces fuel con-
sumption, since it allows the disconnect of
the drive shaft where conditions permit.
SNOW: This mode allows you to have
greater stability under conditions of bad
weather. For use on and off road on sur-
faces with poor traction, such as roads
covered with snow. When in SNOW mode
(depending on certain operating condi-
tions), the transmission may use second
gear (rather than first gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage.
SAND: For off-road driving or use on sur-
faces with poor traction, such as dry sand.
The transmission is set to provide maxi-
mum traction.
MUD: For off-road driving or use on sur-
faces with poor traction, such as roads
covered by mud or wet grass.
ROCK (Trailhawk only): This mode is only
available in 4WD LOW range. The device
sets the vehicle to maximize traction and
allow the highest steering capacity for off-
road surfaces. This mode gives you the
maximum performance off-road. Use for
low speed obstacles such as large rocks,
deep ruts, etc.
