When Using the Manual Transfer Case

.

Shifting should be made using quick motions.
Shifting slowly may make it more difficult to shift.

.

You may notice that it is harder to shift when the
vehicle is cold. After the vehicle warms up the
shifting will return to normal.

.

While in Four-Wheel High or Four-Wheel-Drive
Low you may experience reduced fuel economy.

.

Avoid driving in Four-Wheel Drive on clean, dry
pavement. It may cause your tires to wear faster,
make the transfer case harder to shift, and run
noisier.

.

If the transfer case shifter is in the N (Neutral)
position and you have difficulty reaching the
selected transfer case mode, with the engine
running, shift the transmission momentarily to drive
and then back to N (Neutral). This will realign the
gear teeth in the transfer case and allow you to
complete the shift.

Shifting from Two-Wheel-Drive High to
Four-Wheel-Drive High

.

Shifts between Two-Wheel-Drive High and
Four-Wheel-Drive High can be made at any
vehicle speed.

.

Shift the transfer case lever in one continuous
motion into either the Four-Wheel-Drive High or
Two-Wheel-Drive High position.

.

In extremely cold weather, it may be necessary
to slow or stop the vehicle to shift into
Four-Wheel-Drive High until the vehicle has
warmed up.

.

While in Four-Wheel-Drive High, the vehicle can be
driven at any posted legal speed limit.
