Driving and Operating 199
gear or releasing the clutch pedal.
If two-wheel high or four-wheel high
setting is selected when the vehicle
is in gear and/or moving faster than
5 km/h, the two-wheel high or
four-wheel high indicator light will
flash for 30 seconds but will not
complete the shift and the light will
go back to the original setting.
Shifting to Neutral (2m, 4m or 4n
to Neutral)
Use N (Neutral) when you plan to
tow the vehicle. See Towing the
Vehicle 0 263 for towing
instructions. The vehicle must be
stopped. To shift the transfer into
N (Neutral), do the following:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Start the vehicle.
3. Press the brake pedal and shift
the transmission in N (Neutral),
or press the clutch for vehicles
with a manual transmission.
4. Shift the transfer to two-wheel
high 2
m.
5. Rotate the transfer shift control
switch clockwise past
four-wheel low 4
n to
N (Neutral). Hold the switch in
the N (Neutral) setting for at
least 20 seconds or wait until
the red Neutral indicator light
stops flashing and stays on.
The N (Neutral) red indicator
light will come on when the
transfer shift to N (Neutral) is
complete.
Note
Upon releasing the transfer shift
control switch from the Neutral (N)
setting, the switch will rotate to the
four-wheel low (4
n) setting. The
transfer will remain in neutral with
the red Neutral (N) indicator light
illuminated until a new setting is
selected.
6. Press and hold the brake pedal
and shift the transmission to R
(Reverse) for 1 second, then
shift the transmission to D
(Drive) for 1 second, or 1 (First)
for vehicles with a manual
transmission and release the
clutch to ensure that the
transfer is in N (Neutral). If the
transfer is not in N (Neutral),
repeat this procedure starting
at Step 3.
7. Turn the engine off by turning
the ignition key to ACC/
Accessory.
8. Place the transmission shift
lever in P (Park), or first gear
for vehicles with a manual
transmission.
9. Turn the ignition to Lock/Off.
This N (Neutral) setting is a
four-wheel drive neutral, meaning
that the front and rear outputs of the
transfer are disengaged. With a
disengaged transfer, there is no
power flow through either axle, thus
allowing towing without the driveline
binding.
