This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts properly. It also
tells you some things you should not do with safety belts.
I,
This figure lights up as a reminder to bucklk up. (See “Safety Belt Reminder
Light” in the Index.)
In many states and Canadian provinces, the law says to wear safet\
y belts.
Here’s why:
They work.
You never know if you’ll be in a crash. If you do have a crash, you don’t
know if it will be
a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be so serious that even
buckled up a person wouldn’t survive. But most crashes are in between.
In
many of them, people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk away\
.
Without belts they could have been badly hurt or killed.

The front axle portion of the diagram on the indicator will light up when
you shift into four-wheel drive. A slight delay between shifting an\
d the
pattern’s lighting is normal. If the pattern does not light up, or if the front
axle does not go out after you shift out of four-wheel drive, have your
dealer check your system. Turn the
INT LIGHTS switch located to the
right of your headlight switch to dim your transfer case indicator light\
when
your headlights or parking lights are on. This will also cause\
your
instrument panel lights to dim.
2HI: This setting is for driving in most street and highway situations. Your
front axle is not engaged in two-wheel drive.
4HI: This setting engages your front axle to help drive your vehicl\
e. Use
4HI when you need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads, \
or in most
off-road situations.
N SET PARK BRAKE: Shift to this neutral setting only when your vehicle
needs to be towed.
4LO: This setting also engages your front axle to give you extra traction.
You may never need
4LO. It sends the maximum power to all four wheels.
You might choose
4LO if you were driving off-road in sand, mud, or deep
snow and climbing or descending steep hills.
You can shift from
2HI to 4HI or from 4HI to 2HI while the vehicle is
moving. It is not necessary for you to press the transfer case shift lever
button. Your front axle will engage faster
if you take your foot off of the
accelerator for a few seconds after you shift.
To shift your transfer case into N SET PARK BRAKE:
1. Stop the vehicle and shift your transmission into “N” (Neutral).
2. Set the parking brake. Your vehicle can roll unless the brakes are
applied.
To shift into or out of 4LO :
1. The vehicle must be stopped or moving less than 3 mph (4.8 Wh)
with the transmission in “N’ (Neutral) or the clutch pedal depressed.
2. Press the transfer case shift button and shift in one continuous motion.
Don’t pause in
N SET PARK BRAKE as you shift into or out of 4L0, or
your gears could clash.
Remember that driving in
4HI or 4LO may reduce fuel economy. Also,
driving in four-wheel drive on dry pavement could cause your t\
ires to wear
faster and make your transfer case harder to shift.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Electronic Transfer Case
If your four-wheel drive vehicle has the electronic transfer case, the transfer
case switches are on the right side of your instrument panel above the radio
controls. Use these switches to shift into and out of four-wheel drive. You
can choose among three driving settings:
1. 2HI: This setting is for driving in most street and highway situations.
Your front axle is not engaged
in two-wheel drive.
2. 4HI: This setting engages your front axle to help drive your vehicle.
Use
4HI when you need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads, \
or in most off-road situations.
3. 4LO: This setting also engages your front axle to give you extra
traction. You may never need
4LO. It sends the maximum power to all
four wheels. You might choose
4LO if you were driving off-road in
sand, mud, deep snow and climbing or descending steep hills.
Amber indicator lights in the switches show you which setting \
you are in.
The indicator lights will come on briefly when you
turn on the ignition and
one
will stay on. If the lights do not come on, you should take your vehicle
in for service. When shifting, an indicator light will flash until the shift is
completed then remain solidly lit.
To shift from 2HI to 4HI: Press and release the 4HI switch. This can be
done at any speed, and the front axle will lock automatically.
To shift from 4HI to 2HI: Press and release the 2HI switch. This can be
done at any speed, and the front axle will unlock

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine A green arrow on the
instrument panel will
flash in the direction
of the turn
or lane
change.
To signal a lane change, just raise or lower the lever until the green arrow
starts to flash. Hold it there until you complete your lane change. The lever
will return by itself when you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows don’t f\
lash but just stay
on, a signal bulb may be burned out and other drivers won’t see your turn
signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an accident. If the green
arrows don’t go
on at all when you signal a turn, check the fuse (see “Fuses”
in the Index) and for burned-out bulbs.
If you have a trailer towing option with added wiring for
the trailer lights, a
different turn signal flasher is used. With this flasher installed, the signal
indicator will flash even if a turn signal bulb is burned out. Checkthe front
and rear turn signal lights regularly to make sure they
are working.
Operation Of Lights
Although your vehicle’s lighting system (headlights, parking \
lights, fog
lamps, side marker lights and taillights) meets all applicable federal ligh\
ting
requirements, certain states and provinces may apply their own lighting
regulations that may require special attention before you operat\
e these
lights.
For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your f\
og
lamps only when your lower beam headlights
are also on, or that headlights
be turned on whenever you must use your windshield wipers. In add\
ition,
most jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lights, \
especially at
dawn or dusk. It is recommended that you check with your own state or
provincial highway authority for applicable lighting regulations.
