overdrive off) or fifth gear (with overdrive
on) by pushing this

(c) Overdrive switch
You can select either fourth gear (with
overdrive off) or fifth gear (with overdrive
on) by pushing this switch.
To turn the overdrive off, push the switch.
The “O/D OFF” indicator light should come
on. To turn the overdrive on again, push
the switch again. The “O/D OFF” indicator
light should go off.
Always drive your vehicle with the over-
drive on for better fuel economy and
quieter driving.
If the engine is turned off when the over-
drive is off and restarted, the overdrive
will be on automatically.When the cruise control is being used,
even if you downshift the transmission by
pushing and releasing the overdrive
switch, engine braking will not be enabled
because the cruise control is not can-
celled.
For ways to decrease the vehicle speed,
see “Cruise control” on page 205 in this
Section.
(d) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in “How to start the engine” on page 364 in
Section 3. The transmission must be in
“P” or “N”.
When the front drive control is in “4LO”
mode (low speed, four −wheel drive), the
driving pattern selector setting has no ef-
fect on gear shift timing. (See “Four −wheel
drive system” on page 177 in this Section
for information on the front drive control.)
2. With your foot holding down the brake pedal, shift the selector lever to “D”.
When the lever is in the “D” position, the
automatic transmission system will select
the most suitable gear for running condi-
tions such as normal cruising, hill climb-
ing, hard towing, etc. If the engine coolant temperature is low
or when the front drive control is in “4LO”
mode (low speed, four
−wheel drive), the
transmission will not shift into the over-
drive gear even with the overdrive on.
(See “Four −wheel drive system” on page
177 in this Section for information of the
front drive control.)
CAUTION
Never put your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting.
3. Release the parking brake and brake pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal
slowly for smooth starting.
If the automatic locking operation linked to
shift lever position is set, all doors are
automatically locked when the shift lever
is moved out of “P” position after the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion and all the doors are closed. For
details, see “—Automatic door locking and
unlocking functions” on page 27 in Section
1 −2.

To select this mode, press the “4LO”
switch, and

“4LO” mode (low speed, fourwheel
drive, center differential locked)
To select this mode, press the “4LO”
switch, and then press the center differen-
tial lock switch. The “4LO” and the center
differential lock indicator lights come on.
Use this for maximum power and traction.
Use this for hard pulling in situations the
vehicle cannot negotiate even in “4LO”
(low speed, four−wheel drive, center differ-
ential unlocked) mode. Also, using this
mode when driving down steep off −road
inclines will help contribute to increased
vehicle stability.
The indicator light tells when the differen-
tial lock is engaged. Note that the differ-
ential is not still locked as long as the
indicator light remains off.
When the operation is not completed, the
indicator blinks. If the indicator light does
not go off when you push out the center
differential lock switch, drive straight
ahead while accelerating or decelerating,
or drive in reverse.
If the center differential lock system op-
eration is not completed within 5 seconds
while the cruise control system is set,
cancel the cruise control system. To can-
cel the cruise control system, see “Cruise
control” on page 205 in Section 1 −7. If the indicator blinks even if doing so,
contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible. There may be a trouble in the
center differential lock system.
See “(c) Shifting procedure” for further in-
structions.
Advice for driving on slippery roads in
“4LO” (low speed, fourwheel drive)
mode
If you press the “4LO” switch and shift
the automatic transmission lever to “2”
when you drive in steep off
−road areas,
the output of the brake can be controlled
effectively by the active traction control
system, which assists the driver to control
the driving power of 4 wheels.
Use the “L” position of the automatic
transmission for maximum power and trac-
tion when your wheels get stuck or when
you drive down a steep incline. The output
of the brake can be controlled by the
active traction control system if the engine
speed is under 3000 rpm (normally engine
speed is under 3000 rpm when the wheels
get unstuck), in the following cases:
The front drive control in “4LO” mode
and the automatic transmission in “L”
or the automatic transmission in “D”,
“3” or “2” with the transmission down-
shifting to the first gear
The front drive control in “4LO” mode
and the automatic transmission in “R”
(As for the automatic transmission shift
positions, see “Automatic transmission” on
page 173 in this Section.)
