Transfer Control
4WD Models
The "4WD" indicator light
illuminates when 4WD is engaged
with the 4WD-2WD switch.
"2H" (High Range, 2-Wheel
Drive)
Use this for normal driving on dry
pavement. This position gives
greater economy, quieter ride and
the least drivetrain wear.
"4H" (High Range, 4-Wheel
Drive)
Use this for normal driving on
gravel, wet, icy or snow-covered
roads. This position provides
greater traction than two-wheel
drive. Top speed is limited to 65
mph (105 km/h).
"4L" (Low Range, 4-Wheel
Drive)
Use this for maximum power and
traction. Top speed is limited to
65 mph (105 km/h). Use "4L" for
climbing or descending steep
hills, off-road driving, and hard
pulling in sand, mud or deep
snow.
Operating the 4WD-2WD Switch
2H
4H: To shift between
ranges, push the switch
with the vehicle going in
a straight line at any
speed below 65 mph
(105 km/h). The 4WD
indicator will blink for a
short time as the system
completes the shift.
Taking your foot off the
accelerator pedal for a
moment will help to
engage the new range.
If the vehicle is stopped,
you should let it roll
forward slightly to
complete the shift.
