Your vehicle can climb a 16 inch (40.6 cm) vertical step.
Step climbing is best done by approaching the step at
an angle rather than straight on.
Brake and Accelerator Operation
Techniques for Off-Road Driving
For logs, walls, rocks, severe ditches,
hills, sand, etc.
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. Do not rev
the engine.
2. Select the proper transmission and transfer
case gear range; usually FIRST (1) gear,
Four-Wheel-Low Lock for such obstacles.
3. If wheel spin is experienced, maintain steady
throttle, with your foot off the brake pedal, to
allow the Traction Control System (TCS) to
control the wheel spin. TCS might not operate
if the brakes are applied.
4. If wheel spin cannot be controlled by the TCS
system, fully press the brake pedal with your
left foot so all wheel spin is stopped.
5. Back away from the obstacle so that a new
approach can be tried.
6. As the first wheel crosses the obstacle, be
prepared to alternate the brake and accelerator
pedal to maintain control and avoid tire drop-off
from obstacles. Repeat this process for the
other wheels.
