FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
OPERATION
Command-Trac II®Transfer
Case
• The Command-TracII®transfer case
provides four positions:
• Two-wheel drive (2WD) high range
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOCK) high
range
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOW) low range
• NEUTRAL (N)
2WD To 4WD LOCK
• Move transfer case lever to the desired position.
• Shifts between 2WD and 4WD LOCK can be done with the vehicle stopped
or in motion. With the vehicle in
motion, the transfer case will
engage/disengage faster if you
momentarily release the accelerator
pedal after moving the transfer case
lever.
• If the vehicle is stopped, the key must be in the ON/RUN position.
• Shifts can not be completed if the key is in the ACC position.
4WD LOCK To 4WD LOW
• With the engine running, slow the vehicle speed to 2 to 3 mph (3 to
5 km/h) and shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL.
• While still rolling, move the transfer case lever to the 4WD LOW position.
• After the indicator light is ON (not flashing) shift the transmission into
gear.
• If the indicator light in the instrument cluster is flashing, the shift did not
occur and the current transfer case
position will be maintained. • This transfer case is intended to be
driven in the two-wheel drive position
(2WD) for normal street and highway
conditions such as dry, hard-surfaced
roads.
• When additional traction is required, select the transfer case 4WD LOCK
position or 4WD LOW position. This
position locks the front driveshaft and
rear driveshaft together and forces
the front and rear wheels to rotate at
the same speed.
• When operating in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is approximately three
times that of the 4WD LOCK position
at a given road speed. Take care not
to over-speed the engine and do not
exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
• Use the transfer case NEUTRAL position for recreational towing only.
Selec-Trac II®Transfer Case
• The Selec-Trac II®active on-demand
transfer case provides four positions:
• Two-wheel drive (2WD) high range
• Four-wheel drive Auto (4WD AUTO)
high range
• NEUTRAL (N)
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOW) low range
• This transfer case is intended to be driven in either the two-wheel drive
position (2WD) or the four-wheel drive
Auto position (4WD AUTO) for normal
street and highway conditions such
as dry, hard-surfaced roads.
• For added capability when traversing steep grades, rough terrain, or
extremely poor traction surfaces,
select the transfer case 4WD LOW
position. This position locks the front
driveshaft and rear driveshaft together
and forces the front and rear wheels
to rotate at the same speed while
multiplying engine torque.

• When operating in 4WD LOW, theengine speed is approximately three
times that of the 4WD LOCK position
at a given road speed. Take care not
to over-speed the engine and do not
exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
• Use the transfer case NEUTRAL position for recreational towing only.
2WD To 4WD AUTO
• Move transfer case lever to the desired position.
• Shifts between 2WD and 4WD AUTO can be done with the vehicle stopped
or in motion. With the vehicle in
motion, the transfer case will
engage/disengage faster if you
momentarily release the accelerator
pedal after moving the transfer case
lever.
• If the vehicle is stopped, the key must be in the ON/RUN position.
• Shifts can not be completed if the key is in the ACC position.
4WD AUTO To 4WD LOW
• With the engine running, slow the vehicle speed to 2 to 3 mph (3 to
5 km/h) and shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL. • While still rolling, move the transfer
case lever to the 4WD LOW position.
• After the indicator light is ON (not flashing) shift the transmission into
gear.
• If the indicator light in the instrument cluster is flashing, the shift did not
occur and the current transfer case
position will be maintained.
WARNING!
• You or others could be injured ifyou 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
driveshaft and rear driveshaft from
the powertrain, and it will allow the
vehicle to move even if the
transmission is in PARK. The
parking brake should always be
applied when the driver is not in
the vehicle.

TOW/HAUL MODE
• When driving in hilly areas, towing atrailer, carrying a heavy load, etc., and
frequent transmission shifting occurs,
press the TOW/HAUL button. This will
improve performance and reduce the
potential for transmission overheating
or failure due to excessive shifting.
When operating in TOW/HAUL mode,
the transmission will shift into third
gear.
NOTE: The TOW/HAUL mode locks out
Overdrive.
• The “TOW/HAUL Indicator Light” willilluminate in the instrument cluster to
indicate when the switch has been
activated. Pressing the switch a
second time restores normal
operation. If the TOW/HAUL mode is
desired, the switch must be pressed
each time the engine is started.
RECREATIONAL TOWING
(BEHIND MOTORHOME,
ETC.)
Recreational Towing —
Two-Wheel Drive Models
• Recreational towing is allowed if therear wheels are OFFthe ground. This
may be accomplished using a tow
dolly or vehicle trailer. If using a tow
dolly, follow this procedure:
• Properly secure the dolly to the tow vehicle, following the dolly
manufacturer's instructions.
• Drive the rear wheels onto the tow dolly, firmly set the parking brake and
place the transmission in PARK.
• Turn the ignition switch to the unlocked OFF position.
• Install a suitable clamping device, designed for towing, to secure the
front wheels in the straight position.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable and secure it away from the battery
post.
• Flat towing (with all four wheels
on the ground) is allowed ONLY if
the driveshaft is removed. Towing
with the rear wheels on the ground
while the driveshaft is connected will
result in severe transmission damage.
• The parking brake mustbe firmly
engaged and the wheels chocked
during driveshaft removal and
installation. The parking brake must
remain engaged unless the vehicle is
securely and properly connected to
the tow vehicle, or the driveshaft is
completely reinstalled. See your
authorized dealer for proper driveshaft
removal and reinstallation procedures,
including flange orientation/alignment,
use of thread-locking compound,
proper bolt torque specifications, etc.
UTILITY
50
• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detector signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your
vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a
can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the
sensors may result.
- Engine Temperature Warning Light
• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
• If the light turns on and a warning chime sounds while driving, safely pull over andstop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to normal,
turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned
by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized service center for
service if your vehicle overheats.
BRAKE- 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.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake
system may have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a
collision. Have the vehicle checked immediately.
