2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee SELEC-TERRAIN Setup and Operation
SELEC-TERRAIN
SELEC-TERRAIN MODE SELECTION
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of the vehicle control systems, along with driver input, to provide the best performance for all terrains. Tap the toggle up or down to cycle through the positions.
- Selec-Terrain Positions
- Selec-Terrain Toggle
Selec-Terrain consists of the following positions
- ROCK – Off-road calibration is only available in 4WD LOW. The vehicle is raised (if equipped with air suspension) for improved ground clearance. Traction-based tuning with improved steerability for use on high traction off-road surfaces. Use for low-speed obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc. If equipped with air suspension, the vehicle level will change to Off-Road 2 (OR2). If the Selec-Terrain switch is in ROCK mode, and the transfer case is switched from 4WD LOW to 4WD HI, the Selec-Terrain system will return to AUTO.
- SAND/MUD – Off-road calibration for use on low traction surfaces such as mud or sand. Driveline is maximized for traction. Some binding may be felt on less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls are set to limit traction control management of throttle and wheel spin. If equipped with air suspension, the level will change to Off-Road 1 (OR1).
- SNOW – Tuning set for additional stability in inclement weather. Use on and off-road on loose traction surfaces such as snow. When in SNOW mode (depending on certain operating conditions), the transmission may use SECOND gear (rather than FIRST gear) during launches, to minimize wheel slippage. If equipped with air suspension, the default ride height for SNOW is Normal Ride Height (NRH).
- AUTO – Fully automatic full-time four-wheel-drive operation can be used on and off-road. Balances traction with seamless steering feels to provide improved handling and acceleration over two-wheel drive vehicles. If the suspension is already in OR1 or OR2, the vehicle will not lower to NRH with Auto selection to maintain capability.
- NOTE: If equipped with air suspension, the level will only raise to Normal Ride Height (NRH) in the AUTO mode. If the vehicle is in OR1 or OR2 the height will not lower automatically until defined speed thresholds are exceeded.
- SPORT – This mode is only available in 4WD HI. When activated, the engine and transmission, steering, and suspension (if equipped with air suspension) are all set to their SPORT settings. SPORT mode will provide improved throttle response and modified transmission shift points as well as firmer suspension and steering, the vehicle will also be dropped to Aero Height for an enhanced driving experience. When SPORT mode has been activated, an indicator light will illuminate the instrument cluster.
