[DR17601(B F )06/94]
The Touch Drive 4x4 system functions in three
modes. In Two Wheel Drive mode, power is
delivered only to the rear axle at normal road
speed. The 4H position provides four-wheel
drive with power delivered to the front and rear
axles for increased traction. The 4L position
provides four-wheel drive with power delivered
to the front and rear axles when the above
average power is required at reduced speeds.

Four wheel drive operation (4x4 or 4x4 LOW
RANGE) on dry pavement is not recommended.
Operating the vehicle in four-wheel drive on dry
pavement will increase noise, vibration, tire
wear, decrease fuel economy, and make
four-wheel drive disengagement difficult for the
transfer case.
