low adherence, dirt roads, grass,
pasture, mud, sand, whenever
additional traction is required.
The transfer case shift control
switch is located to the side of the
parking brake handle on the console
between the front seats.
Indicator lights on the shift control
switch indicate which setting you
are in. The indicator lights will come
on briefly when you turn on the
ignition and the selected setting will
remain on. If the lights do not come
on, you should take the vehicle in
for service. An indicator light will
flash while shifting. It will stay on
when the shift is completed. If the
transfer case does not shift, it will
return to the last chosen setting.
When the ignition key is in the
position 2, the transfer case shift
control module monitors the transfer
case shift control switch to
determine if the driver desires a new
setting. At a turn of the transfer case
shift control switch, the lamp of the
new desired setting will begin to
flash to inform the driver that the
transfer case shift control module
has received the request for a new
setting. The lamp continues to flash
until all shifting criteria has been
met and the new setting has been
reached or has been engaged.
Once the new setting is fully active,
the switch indicator lamp for the
new setting will remain on
constantly.
Rotate the shift control switch to
shift into and out of four-wheel drive.

transfer case to N (Neutral) only
when towing the vehicle.

before placing the transfer case in

help drive the vehicle. Use

extra traction, such as on snowy or
icy roads, or in most offroad
situations.
n

also engages the front axle to give
you extra traction. It sends the
maximum power to all four wheels.
