3.
4 LO:
This setting also engages your front axle
to
give
you
extra
traction. You may never need
4
LO.
It
sends the maximum power to all
four wheels.
You
might choose
4
LO
if
you
were driving off-road in
sand, mud, deep snow and climbing or descending steep hills.
Indicator lights
in
the switch show
you
which setting
you
are
in.
Both
indicator lights will come on briefly when
you
turn on
the
ignition. If both
lights do
not
come
on,
you should take your vehicle
in
for service. The
4
HI
position has a green indicator light and the
4 LO
position has an amber
indicator light. When shifting, an indicator light will flash
until
the
shift
is
completed then remain solidly
lit.
Two-wheel drive,
(2
WHEEL),
does not have a switch position or an
indicator light. Your vehicle will be
in
two
wheel drive
if
neither indicator
light is
on.
To
shift from two-wheel drive,
(2
WHEEL)
to
4
HI:
Press and release the
4
HI
switch.
This
can be done at any speed, and the front axle will lock
automatically.
To
shift from 4
HI
to two-wheel drive
(2
WHEEL):
Press and release the
4
HI
switch. This can be done at any speed, and
the
front axle will unlock
automatically.
To
shift from two-wheel drive
(2
WHEEL) to
4
LO:
The vehicle must be
stopped or moving less than
3
mph
(4.8
km/h) with the transmission
in
“N’
(Neutral) or the clutch pedal depressed. The preferred method for shifting
into
4
LO
is to have your vehicle slowly moving one-to-two mph
(1.6
to
3.2 kdh). Press and release the
4
LO
switch. You must wait for the amber
4 LO
indicator light
to
stop flashing and
go
solid amber before shifting your
transmission
into
gear or releasing the clutch pedal.
If the
4
LO switch is pressed when your vehicle
is
in
gear and/or moving,
the amber
4 LO
indicator light will flash for
30
seconds and not complete
the shift unless your vehicle is below
3
mph
(4.8
kdh) and the transmission
is in
“N”
(Neutral) or
the
clutch pedal depressed.
On automatic transmission equipped vehicles: If your transfer case does not
shift into
4
LO,
your transmission indicator switch may require adjustment.
With your transmission in
“N”
(Neutral), press and release the
4
LO
switch. While
the
amber
4 LO
indicator light
is
flashing, shift your
transmission into
P
(Park).
