312 STARTING AND OPERATING Shifting Procedures NOTE: If any of the requirements to select a new transfer case position have not been met, the transfer case will not shift, the indicator light for the previous position will remain on, and the newly selected position indicator light will continue to flash until all the requirements for the selected position have been met. To retry a shift, move the 4WD Control Switch back to the original position, make certain all shift requirements have been met, wait five seconds, and try the shift again. 2WD to 4WD Auto Move the 4WD Control Switch to the desired position. Shifts between 2WD and 4WD Auto can be done with the vehicle stopped or in motion. If the vehicle is stopped, the ignition switch must be in the ON position with the engine either OFF or RUNNING. This shift cannot be completed if the ignition switch is in the ACC position. 2WD or 4WD Auto to 4WD Low When shifting into or out of 4WD LOW, some gear noise may be heard.
