• If all the requirements to select a new transfer
case position have been met, the current po-
sition indicator light will turn OFF, the se-
lected position indicator light will flash until
the transfer case completes the shift. When
the shift is complete, the position indicator
light for the selected position will stop flash-
ing and remain ON.
AWD Auto To Low Range
NOTE:
When shifting into or out of LOW RANGE some
gear noise may be heard. This noise is normal
and is not detrimental to the vehicle or occu-
pants.
Shifting can be performed with the vehicle roll-
ing 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) or completely
stopped. Use either of the following procedures:
Preferred Procedure
1. With the engine running, slow the vehicle to
2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).
2. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
3. While still rolling, rotate the A WD control
switch to the desired position.
4. After the desired position indicator light is
ON (not flashing), shift the transmission
back into gear.
Alternate Procedure
1. Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
2. With the ignition switch in ON/ RUN position
and engine running, shift the transmission
to NEUTRAL.
3. Rotate the AWD control switch to the desired
position.
4. After the desired position indicator light is
ON (not flashing), shift the transmission
back into gear.
NOTE:
• If steps 1 or 2 of either the Preferred or
Alternate Procedure are not satisfied prior to
attempting the shift or if they no longer are
being met while the shift attempt is in pro-
cess, the desired position indicator light will
flash continuously while the original position
indicator light is ON, until all requirements
have been met.
• The ignition switch must be in the RUN posi-
tion for a shift to take place and for the
position indicator lights to be operable. If the
ignition switch is not in the RUN position,
then the shift will not take place and no
position indicator lights will be on or flashing.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
For information regarding the transfer case
NEUTRAL (N) shift procedure, refer to “Shift-
ing Into NEUTRAL (N)” in “Recreational Tow-
ing”.
STOP/START SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The Stop/Start function is developed to reduce
fuel consumption. The system will stop the
engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the
required conditions are met. Releasing the
brake pedal or pressing the accelerator pedal
will automatically re-start the engine.
This vehicle has been upgraded with a heavy
duty starter , enhanced battery, and other up-
graded engine parts, to handle the additional
engine starts.
