Advanced automobile
manufacturing tech-
niques permit you to operate your new vehi- cle without requiring a long break-in periodof low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor- mance and economy of your vehicle byobserving the following precautions during the first 300 miles (500 km). Drive your vehicle at m
oderate speeds during
the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden accelerati
on, prolonged high-
speed driving and sudden braking. These actions would have a detrimental effect onthe engine and lead to increased fuel and oil consumption; th
is could ultimately
result in the malfunction of engine com-ponents. Be particularly careful to avoid full acceleration while in low shift posi- tion (low gears). Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10.)Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-11.)
 Refrain from towing a trailer or other vehicle (Refer to “Trailer towing” on page6-11).

4-wheel drive operation requires special driv- ing skills.Carefully read the “4-wheel drive operation” section on page 5-81 and take care to drive safety.
The control mode can
be switched by press
the switch while the operation mode in ON. If you press the switch, you can change the control mode in the order of AWC ECO,NORMAL, SNOW, LOCK, AWC ECO.
The currently selected control mode is dis- played on the multi-
information display.
In addition, when the control mode ischanged, the selected mode appears on the interrupt display screen of the information screen in the multi-information display.The control mode displa
y will appear on the
information screen for a few seconds, and then the original screen will return.
S-AWC control mode
Function
AW C E C O
This is the most fuel efficient mode. Normal operation is in 2WD, but 4WD performance will be provided under slippery conditions.
NORMAL
This mode can be used on both dry and wet roads. The distri- bution of driving/braking torque to each wheel is auto-matically controlled according to the driving condition.
SNOW
This mode is for driving on slippery road surfaces, such as snow-covered roads.
LOCK
This mode is for driving where maximum traction is required. This mode is suitable for driv-ing on rough roads or driving in mud, sand or fresh snow.
S-AWC drive mode-selector

CAUTION Do not operate the drive mode-selector with the front wheels spinning on a snowy road or in similar conditions
. The vehicle could
lunge in an unexpected direction. Driving on dry, paved roads in “LOCK” mode causes increased fuel consumption andnoise.
NOTE
 The control mode can be switched while driving or stopped.

Example: “AWC ECO” mode is selected.

4-wheel drive operation 5-82 Features and controls

When turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” or “LOCK” posi
tion at low speed, a
slight difference in
steering may be experi-
enced similar to feeling as if the brakes wereapplied. This is calle
d tight corner braking
and results from each of the four tires being at a different distance from the corner. The phe-nomenon is typical of 4-
wheel drive vehicles.
If this occurs, either straighten out the steer- ing wheel or change to another mode. Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD AUTO”, “4WD LOCK” or “SNOW” inaccordance with the road conditions, and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start.
Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” or “LOCK” and then gradually depress theaccelerator pedal for a
smooth start. Keep the
pressure on the accelera
tor pedal as constant
as possible, and drive at low speed.
CAUTION Setting the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” or “LOCK” position to drive on drypaved road will increa
se fuel consumption,
with possible noise generation.
Turning sharp corners On snowy or icy roads
NOTE
 The use of snow tires is recommended.
Maintain a safe distan
ce between vehicles,
avoid sudden braking, and use engine brak-ing (downshifting).CAUTION Avoid sudden braking,
sudden acceleration
and sharp turning. Skidding occurs and con-trol of the vehicl
e could be lost.
Driving on sandy or muddy roads
CAUTION Do not force the vehicle or drive recklessly on sandy surfaces. In comparison with nor- mal road surfaces, th
e engine and other
drive-system components are put under excessive strain when driving on such a sur- face. This could lead to accidents. If any of the follow
ing conditions occur
while the vehicle is
being driven, immedi-
ately park your vehicle
in a safe place and
follow these procedures:NOTE
• If the engine coolan
t temperature display
flashes on the information screen in the multi-information di
splay or the engine
power drops suddenly. Refer to “Engine overheating” on page 8-4.• If the “ ” warning display and “SLOW DOWN” or the “ ” warning display and “SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in the multi-information display. Refer to “Warning disp
lay” on page 5-62,
5-70.WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck position, be sure that the area around the vehicle is
clear of people and
physical objects. The rocking motion maycause the vehicle to suddenly launch for- ward/backward, caus
ing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.NOTE
 Avoid sudden braking,
sudden ac
celeration
and sharp turning; such operations couldresult in the vehi
cle becoming stuck.

Shows the approximate driving range (how many more miles or kilometers you candrive). When this driving range falls below 30 miles (50 km), “
---” is displayed.
Refuel as soon as possible.
N00575301027
This displays the average fuel consumptionfrom the last reset to the present. There are 2 types of m
ode settings of manual
reset and automatic reset.Refer to “Changing the reset mode for aver- age fuel consumption and average speed” on page 5-135.For information on how to change the aver- age fuel consumption di
splay setting, refer to
“Changing the function settings” on page5-134.

This displays the average speed from the last reset to the present. There are 2 types of mode setting of manualreset and automatic reset. Refer to “Changing the reset mode for aver- age fuel consumption and average speed” onpage 5-135. For the method for changing the average speed display setting,
refer to “Changing the

NOTE
 The system check screen display varies depending on your equipment.
Driving range display
NOTE
 The driving range is determined based on the fuel consumption data. This may vary depending on the drivi
ng conditions and hab-
its. Treat the distance
displayed as just a
rough guideline.  When you refuel, the driving range display is updated. However, if you only add a small amount offuel, the correct value
will not be displayed.
Fill to a full tank whenever possible.  When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill, th
e driving range value
may, change. This is due to the movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate anybreakdown.
 The display setting can be changed to the preferred units (miles or km).Refer to “Changing the
function settings” on
page 5-134.
Average fuel consumption dis- play
NOTE
 The average fuel cons
umption display can be
reset separately in both auto reset mode andmanual reset mode.  “---” is displayed when the average fuel con- sumption cannot be measured.  The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.NOTE
 Average fuel consumpt
ion may vary depend-
ing on the driving conditions (road condi-tions, how you drive, etc.) The actual fuelconsumption may differ from the fuel con- sumption displayed, so
treat the fuel con-
sumption displayed as
just a rough guideline.
 Disconnecting the batt
ery cable will erase
from memory the manual reset mode or autoreset mode setting for the average fuel con- sumption display.  The display setting ca
n be changed to the
preferred units {m
pg (US), mpg (UK),
L/100km or km/L}.Refer to “Changing th
e function settings” on

ption is displayed
with a green bar graph. Be conscious of maintaining the momentary fuel consumption above the average fuel con-
sumption, it can help you drive with the better fuel consumption.
