Ignition Switch/Light Switch
The ignition switch is a four-position,
key-operated switch. The key can be
removed from the switch when it is in
the OFF position.
AWD/Differential Lock Switch
The AWD/Differential Switch
has three positions: All Wheel
Drive (AWD), Differential Lock/
Two Wheel Drive (2WD) and Off
(1WD/Turf Mode).
Press the top of the switch to
