This vehicle when equipped with either the automatic
six-speed or manual G-56 six-speed transmissions, will
allow for an aftermarket upfit with a transmission driven
PTO (power take off). The customer will have the ability

mode. In order to select the "mobile" mode an authorized
dealership is required to modify the vehicle's settings
using their proprietary authorized dealer service tool.

To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet
the following conditions:
• Be in PARK position (vehicles equipped with auto-
matic transmission)
• Upfitter provider (on/off) switch has been activated
• Parking brake applied (vehicles equipped with
manual transmission)
• Vehicle engine must be running
• No vehicle, brake or clutch switch faults present
• PTO must be correctly installed using the vehicle
provided circuits
