2304-5. Using the driving support systems
Four-wheel drive system∗
Use the front-wheel drive control swit ch to select the following transfer
modes:
“2WD” (high speed position, two-wheel drive)
Use this for normal driving on dry hard-surfaced roads. This position
gives greater economy, quietest ride and least wear.
“4H” (high speed position, four-wheel drive)
Use this for driving only on tracks that permit the tires slide, like off-road,
icy or snow-covered roads. This position provides greater traction than
two-wheel drive.
The “4HI” indicator will come on.
“4L” (low speed position, four-wheel drive)
Use this for maximum power and traction. Use “4L” for climbing or
descending steep hills, off-road driving, and hard pulling in sand, mud or
deep snow.
The “4LO” indicator will come on.
∗: If equipped

2324-5. Using the driving support systems
■When the front-wheel drive cont rol switch is shifted to “4L”
VSC is automatically turned off.
■ If the “4HI” indicator flashes
The transfer mode may not successfully change. Drive straight ahead while
accelerating or decelerating, or drive in reverse.
■ If the “4LO” indicator continues to flash
The transfer mode may not successful ly change. Operate the front-wheel
drive control switch again.
■ If the “4LO” indicator continu es to flash and a buzzer sounds
The shift lever is not in N and/or the vehicle is moving. Stop the vehic\
le com-
pletely, shift the shift lever to N and make sure that the indicator stops flash-
ing.
■ If the “4HI” or “4LO” indicator flashes rapidly
There may be a malfunction in the four-wheel drive system. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
■ Four-wheel drive usage frequency
You should drive in four-wheel drive fo r at least 10 miles (16 km) each month.
This will assure that the front drive components are lubricated.
CAUTION
■ Shifting the front-wheel drive control switch from “2WD” to “4H” while
driving
Never operate the front-wheel drive control switch if the wheels are slipping.
Stop the slipping or spinning before shifting.
■ When the vehicle is parked
If the shift lever is moved before the “4LO” indicator turns on/off, the transfer
mode may not be shifted completely. The transfer mode disengages both
the front and rear driveshafts from the powertrain and allows the vehicle to
move regardless of the shift position. (At this time, the indicator blinks and
the buzzer sounds.)
Therefore, the vehicle is free to roll even if the automatic transmission is in
P. You or someone else could be seriously injured. You must complete the
shifting of the transfer mode before placing transmission in P.

8
When trouble arises
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When towing the vehicle
2WD models: Be sure to transport the
vehicle with all four wheels raised off the
ground. If the vehicle is towed with the
tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain
and related parts may be damaged or an
accident may occur due to a change in
direction of the vehicle.
4WD models: Be sure to transport the
vehicle with all four wheels raised off the
ground. If the vehicle is towed with the
tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain
or related parts may be damaged, the
vehicle may fly off the truck.
■ While towing
● When towing using cables or chains, avoid sudden starts, etc. which
place excessive stress on the towing hooks, cables or chains. The tow-
ing hooks, cables or chains may become damaged, broken debris may
hit people, and cause serious damage.
● Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
There is a possibility that the steering wheel is locked and cannot be
operated.
