Driving Shifting from 4x4 HIGH (4WD High) to 2WD (2WD High) Rotate the 4WD control to 2WD at any forward speed. Disengagement of the transfer case and front hubs may be delayed due to torque bind which is caused by driving on dry hard surfaces or performing tight turns while using the 4WD system. • You do not need to operate the vehicle in R (Reverse) to disengage your front hubs, but it will eliminate any torque bind and allow the system to immediately disengage. Shifting from 4x4 HIGH (4WD High) to 4x4 LOW (4WD Low) 1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 2. Depress the brake. 3. Place the gearshift in N (Neutral) (automatic transmission) or depress the clutch (manual transmission). 4. Move the 4WD control to the 4x4 LOW position. 5. Hold the shift conditions until the LOW RANGE indicator light illuminates. 6. If the LOW RANGE indicator light does not illuminate within 15 seconds, let the vehicle creep at a speed above 1 mph (1.6 km/h), then repeat steps 1 through 5 before reporting any shift concerns to your dealer.
