FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
Command-Trac II® Transfer Case
• The Command-TracII® transfer case provides four positions:• Two-wheel drive (2WD) high range
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOCK) high range
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOW) low range
• NEUTRAL (N)
2WD To 4WD LOCK
• Move transfer case lever to the desired position.
• Shifts between 2WD and 4WD LOCK can be done with the vehicle stopped or in motion. With the vehicle in motion, the transfer case will
engage/disengage faster if you momentarily release the accelerator
pedal after moving the transfer case lever.
• If the vehicle is stopped, the key must be in the ON/RUN position.
• Shifts can not be completed if the key is in the ACC position.
4WD LOCK To 4WD LOW
• With the engine running, slow the vehicle speed to 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) and shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• While still rolling, move the transfer case lever to the 4WD LOW position.
• After the indicator light is ON (not flashing) shift the transmission into gear.
• If the indicator light in the instrument cluster is flashing, the shift did not occur and the current transfer case position will be maintained.
• This transfer case is intended to be driven in the two-wheel drive position (2WD) for normal street and highway conditions such as dry,
hard-surfaced roads.
• When additional traction is required, select the transfer case 4WD LOCK position or 4WD LOW position. This position locks the front driveshaft
and rear driveshaft together and forces the front and rear wheels to
rotate at the same speed.
• When operating in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is approximately three times that of the 4WD LOCK position at a given road speed. Take care
not to over-speed the engine and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
• Use the transfer case NEUTRAL position for recreational towing only.
Selec-Trac II® Transfer Case
• The Selec-Trac II® active on-demand transfer case provides four positions:
• Two-wheel drive (2WD) high range
• Four-wheel drive Auto (4WD AUTO) high range
• NEUTRAL (N)
• Four-wheel drive (4WD LOW) low range
OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES
72

• This transfer case is intended to be driven in either the two-wheel driveposition (2WD) or the four-wheel drive Auto position (4WD AUTO) for
normal street and highway conditions such as dry, hard-surfaced roads.
• For added capability when traversing steep grades, rough terrain, or extremely poor traction surfaces, select the transfer case 4WD LOW
position. This position locks the front driveshaft and rear driveshaft
together and forces the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same
speed while multiplying engine torque.
• When operating in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is approximately three times that of the 4WD LOCK position at a given road speed. Take care
not to over-speed the engine and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
• Use the transfer case NEUTRAL position for recreational towing only.
2WD To 4WD AUTO
• Move transfer case lever to the desired position.
• Shifts between 2WD and 4WD AUTO can be done with the vehicle stopped or in motion. With the vehicle in motion, the transfer case will
engage/disengage faster if you momentarily release the accelerator
pedal after moving the transfer case lever.
• If the vehicle is stopped, the key must be in the ON/RUN position.
• Shifts can not be completed if the key is in the ACC position.
4WD AUTO To 4WD LOW
• With the engine running, slow the vehicle speed to 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) and shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• While still rolling, move the transfer case lever to the 4WD LOW position.
• After the indicator light is ON (not flashing) shift the transmission into gear.
• If the indicator light in the instrument cluster is flashing, the shift did not occur and the current transfer case position will be maintained.
WARNING!
• You or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattendedwith the transfer case in the NEUTRAL position without first fully
engaging the parking brake. The transfer case NEUTRAL position
disengages both the front driveshaft and rear driveshaft from the
powertrain, and it will allow the vehicle to move even if the
transmission is in PARK. The parking brake should always be applied
when the driver is not in the vehicle.
OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES
73

• The parking brakemustbe firmly engaged and the wheels chocked
during driveshaft removal and installation. The parking brake must
remain engaged unless the vehicle is securely and properly connected to
the tow vehicle, or the driveshaft is completely reinstalled. See your
authorized dealer for proper driveshaft removal and reinstallation
procedures, including flange orientation/alignment, use of thread-locking
compound, proper bolt torque specifications, etc.
Towing – Four-Wheel Drive Models
• Depress the brake pedal and turn the ignition switch to ON/RUN
with the engine shut off.
• Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Shift the transfer case into NEUTRAL by holding down the
NEUTRAL Pin switch for four
seconds until the LED starts to
blink. The LED will stop blinking
and remain on when the shift is
complete.
• Start the engine and shift into DRIVE to ensure there is no vehicle movement.
• Shut the engine off and shift the transmission into PARK.
• Place the ignition switch in the OFF position and remove the key.
• Apply the parking brake, attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle with a tow bar and release the parking brake.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
CAUTION!
Towing with the rear wheels on the ground (while the driveshaft is
connected) will cause severe transmission damage. Damage from
improper towing is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
WARNING!
• If the driveshaft is removed, the vehicle can roll even if the transmission is in PARK, which could cause serious injury or death.
