FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION — IF
EQUIPPED
MP 143 Single-Speed Part-Time Transfer Case
Operating Information/Precautions
The transfer case is operated by the transfer case switch
(located on the center console).
The electronically shifted transfer case provides two
mode positions:
•
Two-wheel drive high range (2WD)
•
Four-wheel drive high range (4WD LOCK)
The electronically shifted transfer case is designed to be
driven in the two-wheel drive position (2WD) for normal
street and highway conditions (dry hard surfaced roads).
When additional traction is required, the transfer case
4WD LOCK position can be used to lock the front and
rear driveshafts together and force the front and rear
wheels to rotate at the same speed. This is accomplished
by rotating the transfer case switch to the desired posi-
tion. Refer to “Shifting Procedure” for specific shifting
instructions. The 4WD LOCK position is designed for
loose, slippery road surfaces only.
