the parking brake. The transfer case NEUTRAL (N)
position disengages both the front and rear drive-
shafts from the powertrain and will allow the vehicle
to roll, even if the transmission is in PARK. The
parking brake should always be applied when the

CAUTION!

It is necessary to follow these steps to be certain that
the transfer case is fully in NEUTRAL (N) before
recreational towing to prevent damage to internal
parts.

1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop, with the engine

running. Firmly apply the parking brake.

NOTE:

If vehicle is equipped with air suspension, ensure

the vehicle is set to Normal Ride Height.

4. Depress the clutch pedal on a manual transmission.

case lever into NEUTRAL (N).

• With electronic shift transfer case, press and hold the

transfer case NEUTRAL (N) button. Some models

have a small, recessed ЉNЉ button (at the center of the

transfer case switches) that must be pressed using a

ballpoint pen or similar object. Other models have a

rectangular NEUTRAL switch, below the rotary

transfer case control knob. The NEUTRAL (N) indi-

cator light will blink while the shift is in progress.

The light will stop blinking (stay on solid) when the

shift to NEUTRAL (N) is complete. After the shift is

completed and the NEUTRAL (N) light stays on,

release the NEUTRAL (N) button.
