3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position, but do not start the
engine.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal.
5. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
6. Shift the transfer case lever to the desired position.
NOTE:When shifting out of transfer case NEUTRAL (N), turning the engine

7. Shift the automatic transmission into PARK, or place manual

8. Release the brake pedal.
9. Disconnect vehicle from the tow vehicle.
10. Start the engine.
11. Press and hold the brake pedal.
12. Release the parking brake.
13. Shift the transmission into gear, release the brake pedal (and clutch

normally.
CAUTION!
• It is necessary to follow these steps to be certain that the transfer
case is fully in NEUTRAL (N) before recreational towing to prevent
damage to internal parts.
• Damage to the transmission may occur if the transmission is shifted
into PARK with the transfer case in NEUTRAL (N) and the engine
running. With the transfer case in NEUTRAL (N) ensure that the
engine is OFF prior to shifting the transmission into PARK.
• Front or rear wheel lifts should not be used. Internal damage to the
transmission or transfer case will occur if a front or rear wheel lift is
used when recreational towing.
• Tow only in the forward direction. Towing this vehicle backwards
can cause severe damage to the transfer case.

CAUTION!(Continued)
• Manual transmissions must be placed in gear (not in Neutral) for
recreational towing.
• Before recreational towing, perform the procedure outlined under
“Shifting Into NEUTRAL (N)” to be certain that the transfer case is

• Towing this vehicle in violation of the above requirements can cause
severe transmission and/or transfer case damage. Damage from
improper towing is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited

and will allow the vehicle to move, even if the transmission is in PARK.
The parking brake should always beapplied when the driver is not in
the vehicle.
