Shifting Out Of 4X4 LOW
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0
to 5 km/h), the ignition in the ON mode and
the engine running, shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL, and push the "4WD LOW"
button once. The "4WD LOW" indicator light
in the instrument cluster will flash and go
out when the shift is complete.
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a

message will flash from the instrument
cluster display with instructions on how to
complete the requested shift. Refer to
"Instrument Cluster Display" in "Getting
To Know Your Instrument Panel" for
further information.
Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is

possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur
due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may be
required for clutch teeth alignment and
shift completion to occur. The preferred
method is with the vehicle rolling 0 to
152
3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is
moving faster than 3 mph (5 km/h), the
4WD system will not allow the shift.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
For the neutral shift procedure refer to
"Recreational Towing" in chapter for further
information.
