QUADRA-TRAC I® FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
Quadra-Trac I® Operating Instructions/Precautions - 3.6L Only
• The Quadra-Trac I ® is a single-speed (HI range only) transfer case, which provides
convenient full-time four-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.

Quadra-Trac II®/Quadra-Drive II® Operating Instructions/Precautions
• The Quadra-Trac II
®
/Quadra-Drive II
®
transfer case is fully automatic in the
normal driving 4WD HI mode. The
Quadra-Trac II
®
/Quadra-Drive II
®
trans-
fer case provides three mode positions:
• 4WD HI
• NEUTRAL
• 4WD LOW
• This transfer case is fully automatic in
the 4WD HI mode.
• When additional traction is required,
the 4WD LOW position can be used
to lock the front and rear driveshafts
together and force the front and rear
wheels to rotate at the same speed.
The 4WD LOW position is intended for loose, slippery surfaces only. Driving in the
4WD LOW position on dry, hard-surfaced roads may cause increased tire wear and
damage to driveline components.
• When operating your vehicle in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is approximately three
times that of the 4WD HI position at a given road speed. Take care not to overspeed
the engine and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature protec-
tion condition exists, a “For 4x4 Low Slow Below 5 mph (8 km/h) Put Trans in N Press
4 Low” message will flash from the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
