OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES Shifting Procedures 4WD HI To 4WD LOW • With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position or the engine running, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL, and press the "4WD LOW" button once on the transfer case switch. The "4WD LOW" indicator light in the instrument cluster will begin to flash and remain on solid when the shift is complete. 4WD LOW To 4WD HI • With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position or the engine running, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL, and press the "4WD LOW" button once on the transfer case switch. The "4WD LOW" indicator light in the instrument cluster will flash and turn off when the shift is complete. NOTE: • If the shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature protection exists, a "For 4x4 Low Slow Below 5 mph (8 km/h) Put Trans in N Press 4 Low" message will flash on the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). • Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely stopped; however, difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being properly aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch teeth alignment and shift completion to occur. The preferred method is with the vehicle rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is moving faster than 3 mph (5 km/h), the transfer case will not allow the shift. NEUTRAL Shift Procedure • Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position, engine off. • Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake. • Place the transmission into NEUTRAL. • Press and hold the NEUTRAL button located near the 4WD mode control knob with a pen or similar object for four seconds. The indicator light will begin to flash indicating the shift is in progress. The light will stop blinking (stay on solid) when the NEUTRAL shift is complete. A "4WD SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL" message will display on the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). • Repeat these Steps to shift out of NEUTRAL. HILL START ASSIST/HILL DESCENT CONTROL • The Hill Start Assist system assists the driver when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill. • The Hill Descent Control system maintains vehicle speed while descending hills during off-road driving situations and is available in 4WD HIGH range and 4WD LOW range. • Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details. 88
