HOW DOES FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE WORK - 4X4 WITH PART
TIME ENGAGEMENT
4x4 With Part Time Engagement (If
Equipped)
This system offers the driver two-wheel
drive high, four-wheel drive high, and
four-wheel drive low as available modes
of operation. When you select either
four-wheel drive high or four-wheel drive
low, the system provides mechanically
locked four-wheel drive power to both the
front and rear wheels for use in off-road or
slippery conditions such as deep snow,
sand or mud. Selecting four-wheel drive
low also provides additional gearing for
increased torque multiplication for
conditions like deep sand, steep slopes, or
pulling heavy objects.
Additionally, the system is capable of
recreational flat towing by putting the
transfer case into neutral (N). See
Recreationally Towing Your Vehicle
(page 307).

FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of four-wheel
drive vehicles. Although a four-wheel
drive vehicle may accelerate better than
a two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won't stop any faster than
two-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive
at a safe speed.
WARNING: Vehicles with a higher
center of gravity (utility and four-wheel
drive vehicles) handle differently than
vehicles with a lower center of gravity
(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,
excessive speed and abrupt steering in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously
increases the risk of losing control of your
vehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
