Use the transfer shift switch to shift from
4×2 to 4×4, and vice versa.
The transfer shift switch has three
positions:
2H (4×2)
In this position, only the rear wheels are
powered. Use this position for normal
driving on paved surfaces.
4H (4×4, high range)
In this position, all four wheels are
powered. Use this position for normal
driving on sandy, muddy, or slippery
surfaces.
4L (4×4, low range)
In this position, all four wheels are
powered. Use this position when climbing
steep hills that require greater traction
than 4H, or when descending steep hills
that require braking assistance.
