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 or 8 KPH 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.

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.
