• For vehicles with Keyless Enter-N-Go™, remove the Keyless Enter-N-Go™
button and use the Key Fob to complete this procedure.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position, but do not start the
engine.
• Press and hold the brake pedal and shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Using a ballpoint pen or similar object, press and hold the recessed
transfer case N (Neutral) button for four seconds, until the light next to
the N symbol starts to blink, indicating shift in progress. The light will
stop blinking (stay on solid) when the shift to N (Neutral) is complete. A
“FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL” message will display on
the EVIC (Electronic Vehicle Information Center).
• Start the engine and shift the transmission into REVERSE.
• Release the brake pedal for five seconds and ensure that there is no
vehicle movement.
• Turn the engine off and firmly apply the parking brake.
• Shift the transmission into PARK and remove the Key Fob.
• Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle using a suitable tow bar and release
the parking brake.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift™ must be lowered to the “Park”
(lowest) level, and have automatic leveling disabled, before tying them down
(from the body) on a trailer or a flatbed truck. Refer to “Quadra-Lift™” in
“Off-Road Capabilities” for more information. If the vehicle cannot be
lowered to the “Park” level (for example, engine will not run), tie-downs must
be fastened to the axles (not the body). Failure to follow these instructions
may cause fault codes to be set and/or loss of proper tie-down tension.
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.
