22. TOW/HAUL

The TOW HAUL button is located on the center

stack upper switch bank. This light will illumi-

nate when TOW HAUL mode is selected.

23. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/
Malfunction Indicator Light — If Equipped

The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator

Light” in the instrument cluster will come on

when the ignition switch is turned to the

ON/RUN position. It should go out with the

engine running. If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction In-

dicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine

running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC

system. If this light remains on after several ignition

cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles

(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see

your authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the

problem diagnosed and corrected.

NOTE:

• The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC

Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” come on mo-

mentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to

ON/RUN.

• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC

system will be ON, even if it was turned off previously.

• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds

when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop

when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver

that caused the ESC activation.

24. DEF Gauge

The DEF Gauge displays the actual level of Diesel

Exhaust Fluid in the DEF tank. Diesel Exhaust Fluid

(DEF) is required to maintain normal vehicle operation

and emissions compliance. More information is available
