An indicator light near the lever shows you the transfer
case settings:
Notice: Driving on clean, dry pavement in
four-wheel drive for an extended period of time may
cause premature wear on your vehicle’s powertrain.
Do not drive on clean, dry pavement in four-wheel
drive for extended periods of time.
4L (Four-Wheel Low): This setting also engages your
front axle and delivers extra torque. You may never
need 4L. It sends maximum power to all four wheels.
You might choose 4L if you are driving off-road in deep
sand, deep mud, deep snow, and while climbing or
descending steep hills. When operating in Four-Wheel
Low, the gear ratio provides additional torque when
compared to four-wheel high. The transmission
gear shift feel will be exaggerated.
{CAUTION:
Shifting the transfer case to NEUTRAL can
cause your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P), or if you have a
manual transmission, even if you are in gear.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
You or someone else could be seriously
injured. Be sure to set the parking brake
before placing the transfer case in NEUTRAL.
See Parking Brake on page 2-49.
N (Neutral): Shift to this setting only when your vehicle
needs to be towed. See Recreational Vehicle Towing
on page 4-62 or Towing Your Vehicle on page 4-61.
2H (Two-Wheel High): This setting is used for driving
in most street and highway situations. Your front
axle is not engaged in two-wheel drive. This setting also
provides the best fuel economy.
4H (Four-Wheel High): Use this setting when you
need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads or in
most off-road situations. This setting also engages
your front axle to help drive your vehicle. This is the best
setting to use when plowing snow.
You can shift from 2H to 4H or 4H high to 2H while the
vehicle is moving. Your front axle will engage faster
if you take your foot off of the accelerator for a couple
of seconds after you shift. In extremely cold weather, it
may be necessary to stop or slow the vehicle to
shift into four-wheel high.
