Disengaging AWD
Move the AWD switch to the center or bottom position to disengage AWD. If the switch is turned off while the demand drive unit is engaged, it will not disengage until the rear wheels regain traction.
In some situations, the front gearcase may remain engaged after turning the AWD switch off. If this occurs, you may notice increased steering effort and some vehicle speed restriction. Perform the following procedure to disengage the front gearcase.
-
Stop the vehicle.
-
Operate in reverse for at least 10 ft (3 m).
-
Stop completely.
-
Shift into low gear and drive forward.
-
If the front gearcase remains engaged after following these instructions, see your dealer for service.
