The RSS automatically turns on

when the gear selector is placed in

R (Reverse) and the ignition is ON.

An RSS control on the instrument

panel allows the driver to turn the

RSS on and off. To turn the RSS off,

the ignition must be ON, and the

gear selector in R (Reverse). An

indicator light on the control will

illuminate when the system is turned off. If the indicator light illuminates

when the RSS is not turned off, it may indicate a failure in the RSS.

Keep the RSS sensors (located on the rear bumper/fascia) free

from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt (do not clean the

sensors with sharp objects). If the sensors are covered, it will

affect the accuracy of the RSS.

If your vehicle sustains damage to the rear bumper/fascia, leaving

it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing

inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false alarms.

LIMITED-SLIP AXLE (IF EQUIPPED)

This axle provides added traction on slippery surfaces, particularly when

one wheel is on a poor traction surface. Under normal conditions, the

limited slip axle functions like a standard rear axle.

Extended use of other than the manufacturer’s specified size tires on a

limited slip rear axle could result in a permanent reduction in

effectiveness. This loss of effectiveness does not affect normal driving

and should not be noticeable to the driver.

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD) OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)

For important information regarding safe operation of this type

of vehicle, see Preparing to drive your vehicle in this chapter.

Four–wheel drive (4WD) supplies power to all four wheels. 4WD should

not be operated on dry pavement; driveline damage may occur.

If equipped with the Electronic Shift 4WD System, and 4WD Low

is selected while the vehicle is moving, the 4WD system will not

engage. This is normal and should be no reason for concern. Refer

to Shifting to/from 4WD Low for proper operation.
