Dinghy Towing

(Vehicles with the Automatic

Transfer Case)

If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transfer
case with a NEUTRAL position, you can dinghy tow your
vehicle. To dinghy tow your vehicle, use the
following steps:
1. Firmly set the parking brake.
2. Place the transmission in PARK (P).
3. Securely attach the vehicle being towed to the tow
vehicle.
{CAUTION:
Shifting a four-wheel-drive vehicle’s transfer
case into NEUTRAL can cause your vehicle to
roll even if the transmission is in Park (P) for
an automatic transmission, or if your vehicle is
in gear, for a manual transmission. You or
others could be injured. Make sure the parking
brake is firmly set before you shift the transfer
case to NEUTRAL.
4. With the engine running, shift the transfer case to
NEUTRAL (N). See “Automatic Transfer Case”
under Four-Wheel Drive on page5-47 for more
information on how to shift the transfer case
to NEUTRAL.
