134 STARTING AND OPERATING
Push the SWAY BAR switch to activate the system.
Push the switch again to deactivate the system.
The Sway Bar Indicator Light (located in the
instrument cluster) will illuminate when the bar is
disconnected. The Sway Bar Indicator Light will
flash during activation transition, or when
activation conditions are not met. The stabilizer/
sway bar should remain in on-road mode during
normal driving conditions.
NOTE:
If the electronic disconnecting stabilizer/sway bar
is disconnected and then driven at speeds above
18 mph (29 km/h), the system will reconnect for
driver safety. The Sway Bar Indicator Light will
continue to flash as the system waits for the driver
to slow the vehicle and will automatically
disconnect again unless the driver cancels the
request with the SWAY BAR switch. The system can
cancel the pending disconnect request if drivetrain
changes are made (e.g. 4WD HI to 4WD LOW)
based on road conditions.
To disconnect the stabilizer/sway bar, shift to 4WD
LOW and push the SWAY BAR switch to obtain the
off-road position
Ú
page 131. The Sway Bar
Indicator Light will flash until the stabilizer/sway
bar has been fully disconnected.
NOTE:
The stabilizer/sway bar may be torque locked due
to left and right suspension height differences.
This condition is due to driving surface differences
or vehicle loading. In order for the stabilizer/sway
bar to disconnect/reconnect, the right and left
halves of the bar must be aligned. This alignment
may require that the vehicle be driven onto level
ground or rocked from side to side.
To return to on-road mode, push the SWAY BAR
switch again.

Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of the
vehicle control systems, along with driver input, to
provide the best performance for all terrains. Tap
the toggle up or down to cycle through the
positions.
WARNING!
Ensure the stabilizer/sway bar is reconnected
before driving on hard surfaced roads or at
speeds above 18 mph (29 km/h); a
disconnected stabilizer/sway bar may contribute
to the loss of vehicle control, which could result
in serious injury. Under certain circumstances,
the front stabilizer/sway bar enhances vehicle
stability and assists with vehicle control. The
system monitors vehicle speed and will attempt
to reconnect the stabilizer/sway bar at speeds
over 18 mph (29 km/h). This is indicated by a
flashing or solid Sway Bar Indicator Light. Once
vehicle speed is reduced below 14 mph
(22 km/h), the system will once again attempt to
return to off-road mode.
WARNING!
If the stabilizer/sway bar will not return to
on-road mode, the Sway Bar Indicator Light will
flash in the instrument cluster and vehicle
stability may be reduced. Do not attempt to drive
the vehicle over 18 mph (29 km/h). Driving
faster than 18 mph (29 km/h) with a
disconnected stabilizer/sway bar may contribute
to the loss of vehicle control, which could result
in serious injury.
