. Shift the transmission into
N (Neutral).

WARNING
Shifting the transfer case to
N (Neutral) can cause the vehicle
to roll even if the transmission is
in P (Park). You or someone else
could be seriously injured. Be
sure to set the parking brake
before placing the transfer case in
N (Neutral). See
Parking Brake on
page 9 ‑ 64 .
. Shifting into Four-Wheel Drive
Low with the vehicle at a stop
may be more difficult. You may
be unable to complete the shift
to Four-Wheel Drive Low, and
the transfer case will end up in
N (Neutral). This is normal, and
is a function of the gear teeth
aligning in the transfer case.
When this happens, make
sure the engine is on, shift
the transmission momentarily
to D (Drive) and back to
N (Neutral), and then complete
the transfer case shift.
. Shift the transfer case shift lever
in one continuous motion into
the Four-Wheel Drive Low
position.
. When in Four-Wheel Drive Low
do not drive faster than
72 km/h (45 mph). This will
reduce wear and extend the
life of your transfer case.
Shifting In or Out of Neutral
1. With the vehicle running and the
engine at an idle, set the parking
brake.
2. Place the transmission into
N (Neutral).
Shift the transfer case in one
continuous motion into or out of
the N (Neutral) position.
Electronic Transfer Case
The transfer case knob is located
next to the steering column.
Use the dial to shift into and out of
four-wheel drive.
