NOTE:

• Steps 1 through 3 are requirements that must be met before pressing the NEUTRAL (N)

button, and must continue to be met until the shift has been completed. If any of these
requirements are not met before pressing the NEUTRAL (N) button or are no longer met
during the shift, the NEUTRAL (N) indicator light will flash continuously until all require-
ments are met or until the NEUTRAL (N) button is released.

• The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position for a shift to take place and for the

position indicator lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the ON/RUN
position, the shift will not take place and no position indicator lights will be on or flashing.

• A flashing NEUTRAL (N) position indicator light indicates that shift requirements have

not been met.

CAUTION!

Towing with the rear wheels on the ground will cause severe transmission damage.
Damage from improper towing is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Front or rear wheel lifts should not be used. Internal damage to the transmission or
transfer case will occur if a front or rear wheel lift is used when recreational towing.

It is necessary to follow these steps to be certain that the transfer case is fully in
NEUTRAL before recreational towing to prevent damage to internal parts.

WARNING!

You or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case
in the NEUTRAL position without first fully engaging the parking brake. The transfer case
NEUTRAL position disengages both the front and rear driveshafts from the powertrain
and will allow the vehicle to move even if the transmission is in PARK. The parking brake
should always be applied when the driver is not in the vehicle.
