E00606801860
Since the driving torque can be applied to the4 wheels, the driving performance of thevehicle when operating in 4-wheel drive isgreatly affected by the condition of the tyres.Pay close attention to the tyres.zInstall only the specified tyres on allwheels. Refer to “Tyres and wheels” onpage 12-8.zBe sure all 4 tyres and wheels are thesame size and type.When it is necessary to replace any of thetyres or wheels, replace all four.zAll tyres should be rotated before thewear difference between the front and reartyres is recognisable.
Good vehicle performance cannot beexpected if there is a difference in wearbetween tyres. Refer to “Tyre rotation” onpage 11-11.zCheck the tyre inflation pressure regu-larly.

Cautions on the handling of 4-wheel drive vehicles Ty r e s a n d w h e e l s
CAUTIONzAlways use tyres of the same size, type, andsame brand that have no wear differences.Using tyres of different size, type, brands ordegree of wear, will increase the differentialoil temperature and result in possible damageto the driving system. Further, the drive trainwill be subject to exce
ssive loading, possibly
leading to oil leakage, component seizure, orother serious failures.
To w i n g
CAUTIONzDo not tow 4-wheel driv
e vehicles with the
front or rear wheels on the ground (Type Aor Type B) as illustrated. This could result indamage to the drivetrain, or unstable towing.If you tow 4-wheel drive vehicles, use TypeC or Type D equipment.
Jacking up a 4-wheel drive vehicle
WA R N I N GzDo not turn on Plug-in Hybrid EV Systemor turn a jacked-up wheel when the vehi-cle is jacked up. The tyre in contact withthe ground may turn and the vehicle maycome off the jack, possibly leading to anaccident. Besides, do not touch the high-voltage area.
