Snow
In heavy snow or for additional control and traction at slower speeds, shift the transmission into a low gear and the transfer case into 4L (Low) if necessary. Do not shift to a lower gear than necessary to maintain headway. Overrevving the engine can spin the wheels and traction will be lost. If you start to slow to a stop, try turning your steering wheel no more than a 1/4 turn quickly back and forth, while still applying throttle. This will allow the tires to get a fresh bite and help maintain your momentum.
CAUTION!
On icy or slippery roads, do not downshift at high engine RPM or vehicle speeds,
because engine braking may cause skidding and loss of control.
