The Variable Torque Management
4WD System (VTM-4) automatically
transfers varying amounts of engine
torque to the rear wheels.

If more traction is needed when your
MDX is stuck or is likely to become
stuck, you can use the VTM-4 Lock
button to increase torque to the rear
wheels when the shift lever is in the
1, 2 or R position. As soon as this
feature is no longer needed, press
the VTM-4 Lock button again to
disengage the VTM-4 Lock.
