Jeep 2008 Liberty - Manual (Page 287)

The “TOW/HAUL Indicator Light” will illuminate in the
instrument cluster to indicate when the switch has been
activated. Pressing the switch a second time restores
normal operation. If the “TOW/HAUL” mode is desired,
the switch must be pressed each time the engine is
started.
Torque Converter Clutch
A feature designed to improve fuel economy has been
added to the automatic transmission of this vehicle. A
clutch within the torque converter engages automatically
at calibrated speeds. This may result in a slightly differ-
ent feeling or response during normal operation in high
gear. When the vehicle speed drops or during accelera-
tion, the clutch automatically and smoothly disengages.
Transmission Limp Home Mode
The transmission is monitored for abnormal conditions.
If a condition is detected that could cause damage, the
transmission shifts automatically into second gear if the
vehicle speed is appropriate. If not, it will wait until the
conditions are appropriate and then it will shift into
second gear. The transmission will then remain in second
gear despite the forward gear selected. “P” (Park), “R”
(Reverse), and “N” (Neutral) will continue to operate.
