Shifting the transfer case to NEUTRAL can
cause your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P). You or someone
else could be injured. If you are going to leave
your vehicle, set the parking brake and shift
the transmission to PARK (P) and make sure
the transfer case is in a drive gear.
Notice: If your vehicle has an Allison
and you try to put the transmission in PARK (P)
while the transfer case is in Four-Wheel Low,
the transmission may not go into PARK (P) and
could damage your vehicle. When parking your
vehicle, make sure the transfer case is in Two-Wheel
High or Four-Wheel High.
NEUTRAL: Shift the vehicle's transfer case to
NEUTRAL only when towing your vehicle.
