NOTE:
With electronic shift transfer case:

Steps 2 through 3 are requirements that
must be met before pushing the NEUTRAL
(N) button, and must continue to be met
until the shift has been completed. If any of
these requirements are not met before
pushing the NEUTRAL (N) button or are no
longer met during the shift, the NEUTRAL
(N) indicator light will flash continuously
until all requirements are met or until the
NEUTRAL (N) button is released.

The ignition must be in the ON/RUN mode
for a shift to take place and for the posi
-
tion indicator lights to be operable. If the
ignition is not in the ON/RUN mode, the
shift will not take place and no position
indicator lights will be on or flashing.

A flashing NEUTRAL (N) position indi -
cator light indicates that shift require -
ments have not been met.

If the vehicle is equipped with air suspen -
sion, the engine should be started and left
running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with
all the doors closed) at least once every 24
hours. This process allows the air suspension
to adjust the vehicle’s ride height to
compensate for temperature effects.
Shifting Out Of NEUTRAL (N)
Use the following procedure to prepare your
vehicle for normal usage:
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop,
leaving it connected to the tow vehicle.
2. Firmly apply the parking brake.
3. Press and hold the brake pedal.
4. Start the engine. Shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL.

With manual shift transfer case, shift
the transfer case lever to the desired
position.

With electronic shift transfer case with
rotary selector switch, push and hold
the transfer case NEUTRAL (N) button
until the NEUTRAL (N) indicator light
turns off. After the NEUTRAL (N) indi-
cator light turns off, release the
NEUTRAL (N) button. After the
NEUTRAL (N) button has been
released, the transfer case will shift to
the position indicated by the selector
switch.

With electronic shift transfer case with
push-button selector switch, push and
hold the switch for the desired transfer
case position, until the NEUTRAL (N)
indicator light turns off and the
desired position indicator light turns
on.
NOTE:
When shifting out of transfer case NEUTRAL
(N), turning the engine OFF is not required,
but may be helpful to avoid gear clash. With
the 8-speed automatic transmission, the
engine must remain running, since turning
the engine OFF will shift the transmission to
PARK (and the transmission must be in
NEUTRAL for the transfer case to shift out of
NEUTRAL).
5. Turn the engine OFF. Shift automatic
transmission into PARK. On 8-speed
transmissions the shifter will automati
-
cally select PARK when the engine is
turned off.
6. Release the brake pedal.
7. Disconnect vehicle from the tow vehicle.
