STARTING AND OPERATING 87
Shifting Out Of 4X4 LOW
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the
ignition in the ON/RUN position and the engine running,
shift the transmission into NEUTRAL (N), and push the
4WD LOW button once. The 4WD LOW indicator light in the
instrument cluster will flash and go out when the shift is
complete.
NOTE:
If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a message
will flash from the instrument cluster display with
instructions on how to complete the requested shift
Ú page 63.
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 4WD system will not allow the
shift.

Deactivating The Rear Electronic Locker System
To deactivate the Rear Electronic Locker System, the
following conditions must be met:
1. Rear Electronic Locker must be engaged, and the
REAR LOCK indicator light on.
2. The ignition in the ON/RUN position and the engine
running.
3. To disengage Rear Electronic Locker, push the REAR
LOCK button once.
NOTE:
It may also be necessary to drive slowly steering back
and forth to complete engagement and disengage-
ment of the Electronic Locker.
When engaging Rear Electronic Locker, the indicator
lights in the instrument cluster and on the REAR LOCK
button will begin to flash. When the shift is complete
the REAR LOCK indicator lights will remain on.
When disengaging Rear Electronic Locker, the indi-
cator lights in the instrument cluster and on the REAR
LOCK button will begin to flash. When the shift is
complete the REAR LOCK indicator lights will remain
off.
Shifting into or out of Rear Electronic Locker 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 for the vehicle to be rolling,
below 15 mph (24 km/h), while including right and left
steering maneuvers to allow for the clutch teeth to
align.
The Rear Electronic Locker System must be disen-
gaged prior to taking the vehicle out of 4WD LOW
range. If 4WD LOW shift conditions/interlocks are not
met, a message will flash from the instrument cluster
display with instructions on how to complete the
requested shift.
