3-116 Features and controls
3S-AWC (Super-All Wheel Control)
(if so
equipped)N00541300049
S-AWC is an integrated vehicle dynamics control system that
enhances driving performance, cornering performance and
vehicle stability over a wide range of driving conditions. It
does this by integrated controls over the front-rear distribution
of driving torque to the wheels and the left-right distribution of
driving torque to the front wheels.NOTE
If the parking brake lever is pulled up while the vehicle is
moving, the front-rear distribution of driving torque con-
trol will be forced to turn OFF which will allow the rear
wheel to lock easier.
S-AWC control mode
N00542400034
Select the control mode from the following three types to suit
the driving conditions.
CAUTION
!
Do not over-rely on the S-AWC. Even the S-AWC
cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from act-
ing on the vehicle. This system, like any other sys-
tem, has limits and cannot help you to maintain
traction and control of the vehicle in all circum-
stances. Reckless driving can lead to accidents. It is
the driver’s responsibility to drive carefully. This
means taking into account the traffic, road and envi-
ronmental conditions.
Be sure to use tires that are the same specified size,
type, and brand, and have no difference in the
amount of wear for all four wheels. Otherwise, the
S-AWC may not work properly.
S-AWC control
mode
Operation
TA R M A CNormally, use this control mode. Use this
mode for paved roads.
SNOWUse this control mode when driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, such as snow-covered
roads.
LOCKUse this control mode when driving on rough
roads where tires may slip or when necessary
to get out of mud or deep snow.

S-AWC control mode-selectorThe control mode can be selected by turning the dial while the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
NOTE
The control mode can be changed while the vehicle is
moving.
1- TARMAC
2- SNOW
3- LOCK
CAUTION
!
Do not operate the dial while the tires are spinning.
The vehicle might suddenly move in an unantici-
pated direction.
Driving on dry, paved roads in “LOCK” mode will
increase fuel consumption and noise, and cause pre-
mature tire wear.
When the tires spin, especially if “LOCK” mode has
been selected and the ASC has been turned off, you
may experience strong steering feedback. Grip the
steering wheel firmly.
