Driving your vehicle
Engine power can be delivered to all
front and rear wheels for maximum
traction. 4WD is useful when extra
traction is required on road, such as,
when driving on slippery, muddy,
wet, or snow-covered roads. These
vehicles are not designed for chal-
lenging off-road use. Occasional off-
road use such as established
unpaved roads and trails are OK. It is
always important when traveling off-
highway that the driver carefully
reduces the speed to a level that
does not exceed the safe operating
speed for those conditions. In gener-
al, off-road conditions provide less
traction and braking effectiveness
than normal road conditions. The
driver must be especially alert to
avoid driving on slopes which tilt the
vehicle to either side.
These factors must be carefully con-
sidered when driving off-road. Keeping
the vehicle in contact with the driving
surface and under control in these
conditions is always the driver's
responsibility for the safety of him/her-
self and his or her passengers.FOUR WHEEL DRIVE (4WD) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING -
Off road driving
This vehicle is designed prima-
rily for on road use although it
can operate effectively off road.
However, it was not designed to
drive in challenging off-road
conditions. Driving in condi-
tions that exceed the vehicle'sintended design or the driver's
experience level may result in
severe injury or death.CAUTION
Do not select four wheel drive on flat and normal roads.
Four-wheel driving on flat roads for a long period causespoor fuel economy and noiseand it also causes tires towear faster.
Four-wheel driving on flat and normal roads can result in asevere binding and chatteringcondition when turning thesteering wheel.
Four-wheel driving on flat roads for a long period canalso cause the differential oiltemperature to increase,resulting in damage to parts in the power train.

A locking differential, if equipped, is
for the rear wheel differential only.
The features of this locking differen-
tial are described below:
Just as with a conventional differen-
tial, the wheel on one side is allowed
to turn at a different speed from thewheel on the other side when the
vehicle is cornering. The difference
between the locking differential and a
conventional differential is that if the
wheel on one side of the vehicle
loses traction, a greater amount oftorque is applied to the rear wheel on
the other side to improve traction.
✽✽
NOTICE
In a stationary position, the LD
(Locking Differential) will operate
when the difference of the revolution
speed between the rear right wheel
and the rear left wheel occurs.
The following procedures can be
used to confirm that the locking dif-
ferential is functioning properly:
1. Position the vehicle so that one wheel is on a dry paved surface
and the other on ice, snow, mud,
etc. Drive the vehicle, and observe
the operation of the locking differ-
ential. The vehicle should not
become stuck if the differential is
functioning properly.
2. Depress the accelerator pedal gradually, and then when traction
is good, depress it forcefully. If the
vehicle accelerates well, the differ-
ential is functioning properly.
✽✽ NOTICE
Usually a locking differential will
operate and release automatically
but occasionally it may not release
automatically.
At this time you will feel the tire is
dragged when you are driving or
cornering. You can release it manu-
ally by slightly turning the steering
wheel right and left while the vehicle
is moving slowly.
LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL (IF EQUIPPED)
CAUTION
Never start the engine with the gearshift lever placed in theforward or reverse while one of the rear wheels is jacked upand the other in contact withthe ground; doing so may cause the vehicle to jump for-ward.
If one of the rear wheels begins to spin in mud, snow,etc., the vehicle can some- times be driven out bydepressing the acceleratorpedal further; however, avoid running the engine continu-ously at high rpm becausedoing so could damage the locking differential.

Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econo my by reducing
the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s
time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
