Driving and Operating

Shifting into Neutral

To shift the transfer case into
N (Neutral):

1. Make sure the vehicle is parked

so that it will not roll.

2. Set the parking brake and apply

the regular brake pedal. See
“Parking Brake” in the owner
manual.

3. Start the vehicle or turn the

ignition to ON/RUN.

4. Put the transmission in

N (Neutral).

5. Shift the transfer case to

Two-Wheel Drive High.

6. Turn the transfer case dial

clockwise to N (Neutral) until it
stops and hold it there until the
N (Neutral) light starts blinking.
This will take at least
10 seconds. Then slowly release
the dial to the Four‐Wheel Drive
Low position. The N (Neutral)
light will come on when the
transfer case shift to N (Neutral)
is complete.

7. If the engine is running, verify

that the transfer case is in
N (Neutral) by shifting the
transmission to R (Reverse) for
one second, then shift the
transmission to D (Drive) for
one second.

8. Turn the ignition to ACC/

ACCESSORY, which will turn the
engine off.

9. Place the transmission shift

lever in P (Park).

10. Release the parking brake prior

to moving the vehicle.

11. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

Shifting Out of Neutral

To shift the transfer case out of
N (Neutral):

1. Set the parking brake and apply

the regular brake pedal.

2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with

the engine off, and shift the
transmission to N (Neutral).

3. Turn the transfer case dial to the

desired transfer case shift
position (Two-Wheel Drive High,
Four-Wheel Drive High, AUTO).

After the transfer case has
shifted out of N (Neutral), the
N (Neutral) light will go out.

4. Release the parking brake prior

to moving the vehicle.

Notice: Shifting the transmission
into gear before the Four-Wheel
Drive Low indicator light has
stopped flashing could damage
the transfer case. To help avoid
damaging the vehicle, always wait
for the Four-Wheel Drive Low
indicator light to stop flashing
before shifting the transmission
into gear.

5. Start the engine and shift the

transmission to the desired
position.
