Driving and Operating
This N (Neutral) setting is a
four-wheel drive neutral, meaning
the front and rear outputs of the
transfer case are disengaged as in
four-wheel high. With a disengaged
transfer, there is no power flow the
either axle, thus allowing towing
without the driveline binding.
Shifting Out of Neutral
After towing the vehicle, you will
have to shift out of N (Neutral) in
order to drive. To shift out of
N (Neutral), do the following:
1. Set the parking brake and
apply the brake pedal;
2. Shift the transmission to
N (Neutral) position;
3. Start the vehicle or keep the
engine off and turn the key to
the ACC/ACCESSORY
position;
4. Rotate the transfer case shift
control switch from the
four-wheel low
4
n
setting to the
desired setting;
5. Release the parking brake.
Brakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle
can still be stopped using the other
brake circuit. However, braking is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. More force is
needed for this. The braking
distance is increased. Seek
immediately the assistance of a
Chevrolet dealer before continuing
your journey.
When the engine is not running, the
brake assist disappears once the
brake pedal has been pressed once
or twice. Braking is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to
bear this in mind when being towed.

Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.
ABS starts to regulate brake
pressure as soon as a wheel shows
a tendency to lock. The vehicle
remains steerable, even during hard
braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process.
For optimum braking, keep the
brake pedal fully depressed
throughout the braking process,
despite the fact that the pedal is
pulsating. Do not reduce the
pressure on the pedal.
After starting off, the system
performs a self test which may be
audible.
