Front Axle
Locking
Feature
The front axle locks and unlocks automatically when you
shift the transfer case. Some delay for the axle to lock or
unlock
is
normal.
If
the outside temperature is very hot, or
the vehicle has
been
used under hard driving conditions,
there may be a slight delay for the axle to unlock.
Manual Transfer Case
(If
Equipped)
The transfer case shift lever is
on
the floor to the right of
the driver. Use this lever to shift into and out of
four-wheel drive.
The front axle portion of the indicator diagram will light
up when
you
shift into four-wheel drive and the front
axle engages.
Some delay between shifting and the indicator’s lighting
is normal. If
the
front
axle
light does
not
go
out
immediately after you shift out of four-wheel drive,
have your dealer check your system.
An indicator near the lever shows you the transfer
case settings:
2-Wheel High (2H):
This setting is for driving in most
street and highway situations. Your front axle is not
engaged in two-wheel drive.
