I assumed it was like the soft-AWD on the crossovers -- during initial acceleration it'll be 4x4 and tapers off once you reach speed, reengaging if slip is detected. My Silverado is similar, though it's light-duty with a single-speed transfer case. 2Hi is 2wd, 4hi is 4x4 with locked rear, 4A is like our 4A with unlocked rear.
You think your power distribution screen is a lie? For whatever reason they just could not figure out how to get the screen working properly on Taurus/Flex so they disabled it entirely. Something about how the Explorer IPC was made by a different company and despite all three using identical drivetrains and sensors, the Taurus/Flex IPC manufacturer couldn't get the speed sensor math to work on the IPC.

Sounds just like the Flex/Taurus/Explorer, lmao. It only has 0.5L of fluid, no airflow, no external cooling, and surrounded by the engine/transmission/catalytic converter. Ford claims the fluid is good for life and they're lying through their teeth the whole time. 30k or after winter. Hopefully it's easier to find a 4x4 shop that'll change the Bronco's fluids because half the shops around here tell me to go to to the dealer. Even the police versions lack external cooling and just add a temperature sensor to let them know when the fluid is cooked.Let me just add fuel to the fire here. There have been several posts already that are 100% correct, that is all I have to say about that. What I would like to point out is there is only 2 quarts of fluid in the transfer case and if one uses 4A a lot I would suggest changing out the fluid often. Not only from heat build up but the materials from the clutch wear. There is no filter in the transfer case like in trans or engine.
I would say at least every 25-30K and/or at the end of winter conditions.
