DUAL MODE EXHAUST —
6.4L (IF EQUIPPED)
This vehicle is equipped with a dual-mode exhaust,
designed to provide both quiet cruising and sporty sound.
The system has two modes, Performance Exhaust ON and
Performance Exhaust OFF. A button on the dashboard can
be used to toggle between settings, and the light illumi-
nates when "Performance Exhaust ON" mode is active. In
this mode, the exhaust valves are commanded to deliver a
deep, sporty sound. A message appears momentarily in
the instrument cluster whenever the exhaust mode
changes. When the "Performance Exhaust OFF" setting is
active, the exhaust valves are closed except at high
engine speeds and loads, when they are commanded
open without notification.
Dual Mode Exhaust Button
The Performance Exhaust is OFF by default; however, if
Performance Exhaust ON is activated by pressing the
exhaust button, this setting will be saved after changing
drive modes and after restarting the engine.
WINCH USAGE — RUBICON
(IF EQUIPPED)
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE USING
YOUR WINCH
General Winch Information
Your vehicle is equipped with an electric vehicle recov-
ery winch. This winch uses the electrical power from the
vehicle charging system to power a motor that winds
the winch rope onto the winch drum via planetary gear
reduction. By nature, a winch is capable of generating
very high forces and should be used with care. Do not
operate the winch without reading and understanding
the complete winch owner's manual.
Tensioning The Winch Rope
The winch rope must be properly tensioned before use.
Follow the instructions listed to tension the rope:
1. Un-spool the rope leaving five wraps of rope on the
winch drum.
2. Attach the hook to a suitable anchor point.
CAUTION!
Be certain the anchor will withstand the load required
to tension the winch rope.
3. Apply at least 1,000 lb (454 kg) of tension to the
rope while winding the rope. Always use care to
ensure the rope does not pile up on one side of the
drum and is neatly wound onto the drum.
STARTING AND OPERATING
CAUTION!
The winch rope must spool on the winch drum in the
direction indicated on the drum rotation decal on the
winch.
