CAUTION
l
Do not drive your vehicle in the “4HLc”
or “4LLc” position on dry paved roads
and highways. Doing so may result in ex-
cessive tyre wear, increased fuel consump-
tion, and possible noise generation. It
may also increase the differential oil tem-
perature, which may damage the drive sys-
tem. Further, the drive train will be sub-
jected to excessive loading, resulting in oil
leakage, component seizure, or other seri-
ous problems. On dry paved roads and
highways, drive the vehicle in “2H” or
“4H” only. Transfer shift lever operation

The transfer shift

lever is operated by pushing it
down and sliding it to the desired position. To shift from To Procedure
Vehicles with M/T Vehicles with A/T

The transfer shift lever can be operated while the vehicle is
either moving or stationary.
When the vehicle is not in motion, shift the gearshift lever
to the “N” (Neutral) position before operating the transfer
shift lever.
When the vehicle is moving, and only while it can be
steered straight ahead, and release the accelerator pedal be-
fore operating the transfer shift lever. The transfer shift lever can be operated while the vehicle
is either moving or stationary.
When the vehicle is not in motion, shift the selector lever
to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position before operating the
transfer shift lever.
When the vehicle is moving, and only while it can be
steered straight ahead, shift the selector lever to the “D”
(DRIVE) position, and release the accelerator pedal be-

l
When shifting
from “2H” to “4H” in cold
weather while the vehicle is in motion, the
transmission gear may make some noise. In
cold weather, try to shift the gear while the
vehicle is stopped.
l When the lever is shifted between “2H” ↔
“4H” or “4H” ↔ “4HLc” while the vehicle
is stopped, the 2WD/4WD operation indica-
tion lamp blinks while the selection is in proc-
ess. Drive slowly and normally after confirm-
ing that the lamp is illuminated. Refer to
“2WD/4WD operation indication lamp” on
page 4-26.
l Do not move the selector lever while the 2WD/
4WD operation indication lamp is blinking.
l On vehicles with cruise control, when the lev-
er is shifted among “2H” ↔ “4H” ↔
“4HLc” while the cruise control is activated,
the transfer gear may make some noise. CAUTION

Do not
operate
the transfer shift lever
while the rear wheels of the vehicle are
slipping on snow or ice. 2WD/4WD operation indication lamp

NOTE
l The
2WD/4WD operation
indication lamp
blinks while the selection is in process. Take
the following precautions when the indica-
tion lamp is blinking. • Keep the steering wheel in the straightahead position while making range selec-
tions. If you attempt to drive forward
with the steering wheel turned, gear rat-
tling may occur and the desired range
may not actually be selected.
• If the front wheel and/or centre differen- tial lock lamps continue blinking after a
“2H” ↔ “4H” ↔ “4HLc” selection has
been made with the vehicle moving, hold
the steering wheel in the straight ahead po-
sition and slowly depress the accelerator
pedal several times.
• If, after a “4HLc” ↔ “4LLc” selection has been made, the front and rear wheel
lamps continue blinking and the desired
range is not actually selected, return the
transfer shift lever to its previous posi-
tion. Place the steering wheel in the
straight ahead position, drive the vehicle
forward, and release the accelerator ped-
al. Next, hold down the clutch pedal
(with M/T) or place the selector lever in
the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (with A/T)
and make the range selection again. l
If
the
front and rear wheel lamps blink rapid-
ly (twice per second) when you attempt to
make a “4HLc” ↔ “4LLc” selection, the se-
lection cannot be made. Stop the vehicle and
release the accelerator pedal. Next, hold
down the clutch pedal (with M/T) or place
the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) po-
sition (with A/T) and make the range selec-
tion again. CAUTION
l
If a
problem
is detected in the transfer sys-
tem, a safety device will activate. The
front and rear wheel lamps will go out,
the centre differential lock lamp will
blink, and transfer shifting will become
impossible. Park your vehicle in a safe
place, turn off the engine for a few mo-
ments. Restart the engine.
The lamps should resume normal opera-
tion. If the lamps continue to blink, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle checked
as soon as possible. Starting and driving

Rear differential lock*
E00606200043
If one wheel
starts to spin freely and the vehicle be-
comes stuck and cannot be freed even using
4-wheel drive, the rear differential lock switch (A)
can be used to activate the rear differential lock for
extra traction. Operating the rear differential lock
1. Move the transfer

shift lever to “4LLc” or
“4HLc” position.
2. To activate the rear differential lock, press the rear differential lock switch (1). 3. To deactivate the rear differential lock, press
the rear differential lock switch (2). CAUTION
l
Operate the rear
differential lock switch
after the wheels are stopped. Operating
the switch with the wheels turning may
cause the vehicle to dart in unexpected di-
rections.
NOTE l The
rear differential

lock does not operate
when the transfer shift lever is in “4H” or
“2H” position.
l When the rear differential is locked with the
transfer shift lever in “4LLc” or “4HLc” po-
sition, changing the shift lever to “4H” or
“2H” position makes the rear differential un-
lock automatically. The rear differential lock indication
lamp
E00606300233
When the ignition

switch is turned to the “ON” po-
sition, the rear differential lock indication lamp (A)
in the meter cluster illuminates for a few seconds
then indicates the rear differential lock’s operating
status (activated or deactivated). NOTE
l The
2WD/4WD operation

indication lamp al-
so illuminates for a few seconds when the ig-
nition switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Refer to “2WD/4WD operation indication
lamp” on page 4-26.
The status of the rear differential lock (result-
ing from depression of the rear differential
lock switch) is shown by blinking or steady
illumination of the rear differential lock indi-
cation lamp. Starting and driving
