[/color]This is how the Manual describes shifting to Neutral and the second page shows shifting back out of Nuetral.
Hope that helps you.
You are a long way from me in Alberta, Canada.
Shifting into NEUTRAL as follows
To shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL do the following:
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 on page 2-40
3. Start the vehicle or turn the ignition to ON/RUN.
4. Put the transmission in NEUTRAL (N).
5. Shift the transfer case to Two-Wheel Drive High.
6. Turn the transfer case dial clockwise to NEUTRAL
position. The transfer case will not shift to NEUTRAL
unless this position is held for 10 seconds.
The NEUTRAL light will come on and then the dial
can be slowly released. The dial will be in the
Four-Wheel Low Lock position but the transfer case
will be in NEUTRAL with the NEUTRAL light on.
7. If the engine is running, make sure that the transfer
case is in NEUTRAL (N) by shifting the transmission
to REVERSE (R) for one second, then shift the
transmission to DRIVE (D) for one second.
8. Turn the ignition to ACC/ACCESSORY, which will
turn the engine off.
9. Place the transmission shift lever in PARK (P).
10. Release the parking brake prior to moving
the vehicle.
11. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.
Shifting Out of NEUTRAL as follows
To shift out of NEUTRAL do the following:
1. Set the parking brake and apply the regular brake
pedal.
2. Shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N) and turn
the ignition to RUN with the engine off.
3. Turn the transfer case dial to Four-Wheel High,
Four-Wheel High Lock or Four-Wheel Low Lock.
After the transfer case has shifted out of NEUTRAL
the NEUTRAL light will go out.
4. Release the parking brake prior to moving the
vehicle.
Notice: Shifting the transmission into gear before
the requested mode indicator light has stopped
flashing could damage the transfer case. To help
avoid damaging your vehicle, always wait for the
mode indicator lights to stop flashing before shifting
the transmission into gear.
5. Start the engine and shift the transmission to the
desired position.
Recreational Vehicle Towing
Recreational vehicle towing means towing your vehicle
behind another vehicle – such as behind a motorhome.
The two most common types of recreational vehicle
towing are known as “dinghy towing” (towing your
vehicle with all four wheels on the ground) and
“dolly
towing” (towing your vehicle with two wheels on
the ground and two wheels up on a device known as
a “dolly”).
Dinghy Towing
Use the following procedure to tow your vehicle:
1. Shift the transmission to PARK (P).
2. Turn the engine off, but leave the ignition in
ACCESSORY.
3. Firmly set the parking brake.
4. Securely attach the vehicle being towed to the
tow vehicle.
{CAUTION:
Shifting a full-time four-wheel-drive vehicle’s
transfer case into NEUTRAL can cause your
vehicle to roll even if the transmission is in
PARK (P). You or others could be injured.
Make sure the parking brake is firmly set
before you shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL.
5. Shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL (N). See
Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive on page 2-36 for
the proper procedure to select the NEUTRAL
position for your vehicle.
6. Release the parking brake only after the vehicle
being towed is firmly attached to the towing
vehicle. You can use your vehicle’s front mounted
receiver with the proper accessories to tow it.
See “Front Mounted Receiver” under If Your Vehicle
is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 4-39.
7. Turn the ignition to ACCESSORY.
8. Disconnect the battery if you are going to tow for
long distances or long periods of time.
When towing your vehicle for extended periods of time,
start your vehicle as often as possible to prevent
battery drain. This should only be done when the tow
vehicle is parked.
Dolly Towing
Your vehicle cannot be dolly towed. If you must tow
your vehicle behind another, use the dinghy towing
procedure listed previously.
Notice: Dolly towing your vehicle will damage
drivetrain components. Do not dolly tow your
vehicle.
