2HI, 2 m (Two-Wheel High): This setting is for driving
in most street and highway situations. Your front axle
is not engaged in two-wheel drive. It also provides
the best fuel economy.
A4WD, AUTO (Automatic Four-Wheel Drive): This
setting is ideal for use when road conditions are
variable. When driving your vehicle in automatic
four-wheel drive, the front axle is engaged, but the
vehicle’s power is sent to the rear wheels. When the
vehicle senses a loss of traction, the system will
automatically engage four-wheel drive. Driving in this
mode results in slightly lower fuel economy than
Two-Wheel High.
4HI, 4
m (Four-Wheel High): This setting should be
used 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.
4LO, 4
n (Four-Wheel Low): This setting also
engages your front axle and delivers extra torque. It
sends maximum power to all four wheels. You might
choose this setting if you are driving off-road in deep
sand, deep mud, and climbing or descending steep hills.
{CAUTION:
Shifting the transfer case to NEUTRAL can
cause your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P). 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 2-31.
NEUTRAL: Shift the vehicle’s transfer case to
NEUTRAL only when towing your vehicle. See
Recreational Vehicle Towing on page 4-50 for more
information.
An indicator light in the knob will show you which
position the transfer case is in. The indicator lights will
come on briefly when you turn on the ignition and
one will stay on. If the lights do not come on, you should
take your vehicle to your dealer for service. An
indicator light will flash while shifting the transfer case. It
will stay on when the shift is complete. If for some
reason the transfer case cannot make a requested shift,
it will return to the last chosen setting.
