4WD shift switch operations
●Shift the 4WD shift switch to either the
2WD, AUTO, 4H or 4LO position, depend-
ing on driving conditions.
● With the switch set to the AUTO position,
distribution of torque to the front and rear
wheels changes automatically, depending
on road conditions encountered [ratio; 0 :
100 (2WD) →50 : 50 (4WD)]. This results
in improved driving stability. ●
If the 4WD shift switch is operated
while making a turn, accelerating or
decelerating or if the ignition switch is
turned off while in the AUTO, 4H or
4LO, you may feel a jolt. This is not
abnormal.
● When the vehicle is stopped after mak-
ing a turn, you may feel a slight jolt
after the shift lever is shifted to N or P.
This occurs because the transfer clutch
is released and not because of a mal-
function.
