This electronically shifted transfer case is designed to be
driven in the AWD AUTO position for normal street and
highway conditions on dry hard surfaced roads.
For variable driving conditions, the AWD AUTO mode
can be used. In this mode, the front axle is engaged, but
the vehicle’s power is sent to the rear wheels. All-wheel
drive will be automatically engaged when the vehicle
senses a loss of traction.
When additional traction is required, the transfer case
LOW position can be used to lock the front and rear
driveshafts together forcing the front and rear wheels to
rotate at the same speed. This is accomplished by rotating
the AWD Control Switch to the desired position. Refer to
“Shifting Procedure” for specific shifting instructions.
The LOW position is designed for loose, slippery road
surfaces only. Driving in the LOW position on dry hard
surfaced roads may cause increased tire wear and dam-
age to the driveline components.
NOTE: The transfer case NEUTRAL position is selected
by pressing the button located on the lower left hand
corner of the AWD Control Switch. The transfer case
NEUTRAL position is to be used for recreational towing
only. Refer to “Recreational Towing” in “Starting and
Operating” for further information.
