WARNING!
●
If you use a trailer brake controller with your
trailer, the trailer brakes may be activated and
deactivated with the brake switch. If so, there may
not be enough brake pressure to hold both the
vehicle and the trailer on a hill when the brake
pedal is released. In order to avoid rolling down
an incline while resuming acceleration, manually
activate the trailer brake or apply more vehicle
brake pressure prior to releasing the brake pedal.
●
HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the
parking brake fully when exiting your vehicle. Also,
be certain to place the transmission in PARK.
●
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision or serious personal injury.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
RBS may improve braking performance in wet
conditions. It will periodically apply a small amount of
brake pressure to remove any water buildup on the
front brake rotors. It functions when the windshield
wipers are in LO or HI speed. When Rain Brake Support
is active, there is no notification to the driver and no
driver interaction is required.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
RAB may reduce the time required to reach full braking
during emergency braking situations. It anticipates
when an emergency braking situation may occur by
monitoring how fast the throttle is released by the
driver. The Electronic Brake Control system will prepare
the brake system for a panic stop.
Selec-Speed Control (SSC) — If Equipped
SSC is intended for off-road driving in 4WD Low only.
SSC maintains vehicle speed by actively controlling
engine torque and brakes.
SSC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not activate)
2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but
activation conditions are not met, or driver
is actively overriding with brake or throttle
application)
3. Active (feature is enabled and actively controlling
vehicle speed)
Enabling SSC
SSC is enabled by pushing the SSC switch, but the
following conditions must also be met to enable SSC:
●
The driveline is in 4WD Low.
●
The vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h).
●
The parking brake is released.
●
The driver door is closed.
●
The driver is not applying throttle.
Activating SSC
Once SSC is enabled it will activate automatically once
the following conditions are met:
●
The driver releases the throttle.
●
The driver releases the brake.
●
The transmission is in any selection other than
PARK.
●
Your vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h).
The set speed for SSC is selectable by the driver, and
can be adjusted by using the gear shift +/-. Additionally,
the SSC set speed may be reduced when climbing a
grade and the level of set speed reduction depends on
the magnitude of grade. The following summarizes the
SSC set speeds:
SSC Target Set Speeds
●
1st = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)
●
2nd = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)
●
3rd = 1.8 mph (3 km/h)
●
4th = 2.5 mph (4 km/h)
●
5th = 3.1 mph (5 km/h)
●
6th = 3.7 mph (6 km/h)
●
7th = 4.3 mph (7 km/h)
●
8th = 5 mph (8 km/h)
●
9th = 5.6 mph (9 km/h) — if equipped
●
REVERSE = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)
●
NEUTRAL = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)
●
PARK = SSC remains enabled but not active
NOTE:
●
During SSC, the +/- gear selector input is used
for SSC target speed selection but will not
affect the gear chosen by the transmission. While
actively controlling SSC, the transmission will shift
appropriately for the driver-selected set speed and
corresponding driving conditions.
●
SSC operation is influenced by Off Road+ drive mode
if active. The differences may be notable to the driver
as a varying level of aggressiveness.
