Shifting from Four-Wheel
Low to Two-Wheel High or
Four-Wheel High
To shift from Four-Wheel Low to
Two-Wheel High or Four-Wheel
High, the vehicle must be stopped
or moving less than 5 km/h (3 mph)
with the transmission in N (Neutral)
for an automatic transmission or the
clutch pedal pressed for a manual
transmission. The preferred method
for shifting out of Four-Wheel Low is
to have your vehicle moving
1.6 to 3.2 km/h (1 to 2 mph).
Press and release the Four-Wheel
High or Two-Wheel High button. You
must wait for the Four-Wheel High
or Two-Wheel High indicator light to
stop flashing and stay on before
shifting the transmission into gear or
releasing the clutch pedal.
If the Four-Wheel High or
Two-Wheel High button is pressed
when the vehicle is in gear and/or
moving faster than 5 km/h (3 mph),
the Four-Wheel High or Two-Wheel
High indicator light will flash for
30 seconds but not complete the
shift.
Shifting to Neutral
Use N (Neutral) when you plan to
tow the vehicle. See Recreational
Vehicle Towing on page 1085 for
towing instructions. To shift the
transfer case into N (Neutral) do the
following:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Start the vehicle.
3. Press the regular brake pedal
and shift the transmission in
N (Neutral), or press in the clutch
for vehicles with a manual
transmission.
4. Shift the transfer case to
Two-Wheel High.
5. Press and hold the Two-Wheel
High and Four-Wheel Low
buttons at the same time for
10 seconds. The N (Neutral) light
will come on when the transfer
case shift to N (Neutral) is
complete.
6. Press and hold the regular brake
pedal and shift the transmission
to R (Reverse) for one second,
then shift the transmission to
D (Drive) for one second,
or 1 (First) for vehicles with
manual transmissions, and let
out the clutch to insure the
transfer case is in N (Neutral).
If the transfer case is not in
N (Neutral), repeat this
procedure starting at Step 3.
7. Turn the engine off by turning
the key to ACC/ACCESSORY.
8. Place the transmission shift
lever in P (Park), or 1 (First) for
vehicles that have a manual
transmission.
9. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.
