Shifting Procedures
AWD AUTO To LOW RANGE
NOTE:When shifting into or out of LOW
RANGE some gear noise may be heard.
This noise is normal and is not
detrimental to the vehicle or occupants.
• Shifting can be performed with the
vehicle rolling 2 to 3 mph (3 to
5 km/h) or completely stopped. Use
either of the following procedures:
Preferred Procedure
• With the engine running, slow the
vehicle to 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).
• Shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL.
• While still rolling, rotate the transfer
case control switch to the desired
position.
• After the desired position indicator
light is ON (not flashing), shift the
transmission back into gear.
Alternate Procedure
• Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
• With the ignition switch in the ON
position and the engine either OFF or
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL.
• Rotate the transfer case control
switch to the desired position.
• After the desired position indicator
light is ON (not flashing), shift the
transmission back into gear.NOTE:
• If Steps 1 or 2 of either the Preferred
or Alternate Procedure are not satisfied
prior to attempting the shift or if they
no longer are being met while the shift
attempt is in process, the desired
position indicator light will flash
continuously while the original position
indicator light is ON, until all
requirements have been met.
• The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for a shift to take place and for
the position indicator lights to be
operable. If the ignition switch is not in
the ON position, then the shift will not
take place and no position indicator
lights will be on or flashing.
WARNING!
• Always engage the parking brake
when powering down the vehicle if
the “SERV AWD Warning Light” is
illuminated. Not engaging the
parking brake may allow the
vehicle to roll which may cause
personal injury.
• You or others could be injured if
you leave the vehicle unattended
with the transfer case in the
NEUTRAL position without first
fully engaging the parking brake.
The transfer case NEUTRAL
position disengages both the front
and rear driveshafts from the
powertrain and will allow the
vehicle to move regardless of the
transmission position. The parking
brake should always be applied
