FEATURES AND CONTROLS

All Wheel Drive System

Engaging AWD

The 4X4 switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving.

Initially, the vehicle's electronic system will not enable AWD until the

engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, AWD remains enabled until

the 4X4 switch is turned off. If the switch is turned off while the demand

drive unit is moving, it will not disengage until the rear wheels regain

traction.
Engage the 4X4 switch before getting into conditions where front wheel

drive may be needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the throttle

before switching to AWD.

NOTICE: Switching to 4X4 or ADC 4X4 while the rear wheels are spinning may

cause severe drive shaft and gearcase damage. Always switch to

4X4 or ADC 4X4 while the rear wheels have traction or are at rest.
