Refer to “Recreational Towing” in “Starting and Operat-

ing” for further information.

WARNING!

You or others could be injured or killed if you leave
the vehicle unattended with the power transfer unit
in the NEUTRAL (N) position without first fully
engaging the parking brake. The NEUTRAL (N)
position disengages both the front and rear drive
shafts from the powertrain and will allow the vehicle
to roll, even if the transmission is in PARK. The
parking brake should always be applied when the
driver is not in the vehicle.

4WD LOW
This range is for low speed four-wheel drive. It provides

an additional gear reduction which allows for increased

torque to be delivered to both the front and rear wheels

while providing maximum pulling power for loose,

slippery road surfaces only. Do not exceed 25 mph

(40 km/h).
NOTE:

Refer to “Selec-Terrain® – If Equipped” for fur-

ther information on the various positions and their

intended usages.

Shifting Procedures

Shifting Into 4X4 LOW
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the

ignition switch in the ON position and the engine run-

ning, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL, and press

the “4WD LOW” button once. The “4WD LOW” indica-

tor light in the instrument cluster will begin to flash and

remain on solid when the shift is complete.
