260 STARTING AND OPERATING For additional information on the appropriate use of each transfer case mode position, refer to the following information: 4WD The 4-Wheel Drive High Range employs the inter-axle differential. This range allows front and rear wheels to rotate at different speeds on all road surfaces. 4WD LOCK The 4-Wheel Drive Lock (4WD LOCK) Range locks the transfer case inter-axle differential, forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. Additional traction for loose, slippery road surfaces only. 4WD LOW The 4-Wheel Drive Low (4WD LOW) Range provides low speed 4-wheel drive. It locks the front and rear driveshafts together, forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. This range provides additional traction and maximum pulling power for loose or slippery road surfaces only. Do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h). N The NEUTRAL Range disengages both the front and rear driveshafts from the powertrain. NEUTRAL is used for flat towing behind another vehicle. Refer to "Recreational Towing" in Section 5.
