• 2 high is for everyday highway driving on pavement. This mode provides the best fuel economy. 
• 4 high should be used when extra traction is needed on snowy or icy roads. 
• 4 low is used in low-traction situations on difficult off-road surfaces such as deep sand, snow, or mud. Only use this mode at low speeds.
