FOUR WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
FOUR-POSITION/PART TIME TRANSFER CASE
The transfer case provides four mode
positions:
• Two-wheel drive high range (2WD)
• Four-wheel drive high range (4WD
LOCK)
• NEUTRAL (N)
• Four-wheel drive low range (4WD LOW)
This transfer case is intended to be driven
in the 2WD position for normal street and
highway conditions, such as dry, hard-
surfaced roads.
When additional traction is required, the
4WD LOCK and 4WD LOW positions can
be used to lock the front and rear driveshafts together.
When operating your vehicle in 4WD LOW, do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
Shifting Procedure
Shifting between 2WD and 4WD LOCK can be made with the vehicle stopped or in
motion at speeds up to 55 mph (88 km/h).
Shifting between 2WD or 4WD LOCK into 4WD LOW must be made with the transmis-
sion in NEUTRAL and the vehicle stopped or rolling at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).
NOTE:
It is preferred to have the engine running and the vehicle moving at 2 to 3 mph (3 to
5 km/h).
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer
case in the NEUTRAL position without first fully engaging the parking brake. The
transfer case NEUTRAL position disengages both the front and rear driveshafts
from the powertrain and will allow the vehicle to move regardless of the transmis-
sion position. The parking brake should always be applied when the driver is not
in the vehicle.
