Regardless of which system you have, you can change 4X4 modes using the switch on your center console to the right of your steering wheel. Let’s talk about how to shift between modes, and what you’ll see in each of them. With either 4×4 system you can shift between 2H, 4H, or 4A at a stand still, or at any speed.

Note: You may hear some noise as the system shifts or engages; this is normal. You can move the control from 2H to 4A or 4H at a stop or while driving.

When to use 4×4 High You’ll likely want to reserve using 4×4 high on situations where you’re going more than 15 mph, but slower than 55 mph. This mode is meant to apply more traction on snowy or icy roads. You can also use it for off-roading, but it’s not meant to be used in normal, dry driving conditions on a road.

Use “4-High” when… you are needing slightly more traction than normal, but can still drive at a reasonably high speed. If you’re going oer 15 mph, then this is the setting you’ll use. In snowy conditions or slippery conditions, rocky roads, or when you’re going oer some rough pasture, this is the setting you’ll want.

When to use Low: To maximize both power and traction, you can rely on low-range 4×4 for crawling over rocks, fording creeks, plowing through deep sand, or negotiating steep off-road trails. At this setting, the wheels turn more slowly than on High, so use Low only at speeds of 40 MPH or less.
