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 and the pattern's lighting is normal. If the pattern does not light up, or if the front axle lights do 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 headlamp switch to dim your transfer case indicator light when your headlamps or parking lamps are on. This will also cause your instrument panel lights to dim. 4LO: This setting also engages your front axle to give you extra traction and provides extra gear reduction. 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. Do not press the transfer case shift lever button when shiftingfrom 2HI to 4HI or from 4HI to 2HI. Your front axle will engage faster if you take your foot off of the acceleratorfor 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 NEUTRAL (N). 2. Set the parking brake. Your vehicle can roll unless the brakes are applied. 3. Pull the transfer case shift lever into N SET PARK BRAKE. 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 vehicle. 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 needsto be towed. 2-23
