NOTE: Delayed shifting out of 4LOCK may be experi-
enced due to uneven tire wear, low tire pressure, or
excessive vehicle loading.
NOTE: If any of the requirements to select a new
transfer case position have not been met, the transfer case
will not shift.The indicator light will flash and the current
transfer case position will be maintained.To retry a
selection, turn the control knob back to the current
position, wait five (5) seconds, and retry the shift.
NOTE: The 4x4 system will not allow shifts between
AWD/4LOCK if the rear wheels are spinning (no trac-
tion). In this situation the position indicator light will
continue to flash. At this time, reduce speed and stop
spinning the wheels to complete the shift. There may be
a delay up to 13 seconds for the shift to complete after the
wheels have stopped spinning.
NOTE: The ignition key must be ON for a shift to take
place and for the position indicator lights to be operable.
If the key is not ON then the shift will not take place and
no position indicator lights will be on or flashing.

road surface, including dry hard surfaced roads. The
AWD mode allows the front and rear wheels to rotate at
different speeds. This eliminates driveline binding and
component wear normally associated with driving the
