Use the following procedure to tow
the vehicle:

for an automatic transmission or
in 1 (First) for a manual
transmission.
2. Turn the engine off, but leave the

3. Firmly set the parking brake.
4. Securely attach the vehicle being
towed to the tow vehicle.
{ CAUTION
Shifting a full-time
four-wheel-drive vehicle’s
transfer case into N (Neutral)
can cause the vehicle to roll
even if the automatic transmission
is in P (Park) or the manual
transmission is in any gear. You
or others could be injured. Make
sure the parking brake is firmly
set before the transfer case is
shifted to N (Neutral).
5. Shift the transfer case to
N (Neutral). See Full-Time
Four-Wheel Drive on page 2-24
for the proper procedure to
select the N (Neutral) position for
the vehicle.
6. Release the parking brake only
after the vehicle being towed is
firmly attached to the tow vehicle.
7. Make sure the ignition is in
ACC/ACCESSORY.
When towing the vehicle for
extended periods of time, start the
vehicle as often as possible to
prevent battery drain. This should
only be done when the tow
vehicle is parked.
After towing, see “Shifting Out of
NEUTRAL” under Full-Time
Four-Wheel Drive on page 2-24.
