• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low

of a vehicle speed.

• Holding the (-) paddle depressed will downshift the

transmission to the lowest gear possible at the current

speed.

• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when

AutoStick is engaged.

• The system may revert to automatic shift mode if a

fault or overheat condition is detected.

To disengage AutoStick mode, press and hold the (+)

shift paddle until ЉDЉ is once again indicated in the

instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of AutoStick

mode at any time without taking your foot off the

accelerator pedal.

WARNING!

Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their
grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION

Single-Speed Operating Instructions/Precautions
— If Equipped

This system contains a single-speed (HI range only)

transfer case, which provides convenient full-time all-

wheel drive. No driver interaction is required. The Brake

Traction Control (BTC) System, which combines standard

ABS and Traction Control, provides resistance to any

wheel that is slipping to allow additional torque transfer

to wheels with traction.
