Transfer case switch Transfer case position H L HIGH Road position LOW Off-road position This position is intended for driving off-road and step gradients. The automatic transmission will not upshift automatically to the next higher gear range when driving at the rpm limit. The transfer case supports the engine's driving force (approximately 1/2 speed). Output is therefore increased. Neutral No power is transmitted from the engine to the drive axle. Current transfer case indicator : appears in the multifunction display. G Warning! N Always wait until the procedure of shifting from HIGH to LOW - and from LOW to HIGH - has been entirely completed. During this procedure do not turn off the engine or shift the automatic transmission into another gear. If you do not wait until the shifting procedure has been entirely completed then it might not be correctly performed. The transfer case might be in neutral, thus interrupting the transfer of power between the engine and the drive axle. The vehicle is then freely movable, even if a gear has been selected, and could unintentionally be set into motion - particularly on up - or downhill grades.
