Shifting Procedures
4WD HI To 4WD LOW
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph(0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will
begin to flash and remain on solid
when the shift is complete. Release the
T-handle.
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur
due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may
be required for clutch teeth alignment
and shift completion to occur. The
preferred method is with the vehicle
rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the
vehicle is moving faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the transfer case will not
allow the shift.
4WD LOW To 4WD HI
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph(0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will flash
and go out when the shift is complete.
Release the T-handle.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
• Key ON, engine off.
• Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
• Place the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Hold down the NEUTRAL “pin” switch
(with a pen, etc.) for four seconds until
the LED light by the switch starts to
blink indicating shift in progress. The
light will stop blinking (stay on solid)
when the NEUTRAL shift is complete. A
“4WD SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL” message
will display on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
• Repeat these Steps to shift out of NEUTRAL.
OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES

24 HOUR TOWING ASSISTANCE - U.S. ONLY
• Dial toll-free 1-800-521-2779.
• Provide your name, vehicle identification number and license plate number.
• Provide your location, including telephone number, from which you are calling.
• Briefly describe the nature of the problem and answer a few simple questions.
• You will be given the name of the service provider and an estimated time of arrival. If youfeel you are in an “unsafe situation”, please let us know. With your consent, we will

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Indicator Light
• If this indicator light flashes during acceleration, apply as little throttle as possible. Whiledriving, ease up on the accelerator. Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or
gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESP system off.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
• A Tire Pressure Monitoring Light and a “low tire” message will display in your instrumentcluster along with an audible chime if one or more of your vehicle’s four road tires are
significantly under-inflated.
• Check the inflation pressure of each tire and inflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle. The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and
Loading Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening. The TPMS light
should not be used as a tire pressure gauge when adjusting your tire pressure.
• It is recommended that you check the tire pressure in the morning when tires are cool; inflate each tire to the recommended pressure for your vehicle. The light will turn off
after your vehicle’s tire pressures are properly inflated and the pressure has been
recognized. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(25 km/h) before the light will turn off.
• Temperature changes can affect tire pressure, causing the TPMS light to turn on. Tire pressures will also increase as the vehicle is driven – this is normal and you should not
adjust for this increased pressure.
• Driving on under-inflated tires reduces your vehicle’s fuel efficiency and tire tread life. If a spare tire is in use on the vehicle, the TPMS light may turn on.
- Brake Warning Light
• The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or theparking brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it
indicates a possible brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock
Brake System problem.
• We recommend you drive to the nearest Service Center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
