a more aggressive shifting pattern. Refer to "Paddle
Shift Mode" in "Starting And Operating" for further

Active Damping System

This vehicle is equipped with an electronic controlled
damping system. This system reduces body roll and pitch
in many driving situations including cornering, accelera-
tion and braking. There are 3 modes:
• Touring Mode (Available in terrain positions AUTO
and SNOW) — Used during highway speeds where a
touring suspension feel is desired.
• Firm Mode (Available in terrain positions SPORT and
TOW) — Provides a firm suspension for better han-
dling.
• Full Firm (Available in TRACK mode) — Provides a
full firm suspension for an aggressive track experience.
