When turning a sharp corner in “4WDLOCK” (Electronically
controlled 4WD) or
“LOCK” (S-AWC) position at low speed, a
slight difference in
steering may be experi-
enced similar to feeling as if the brakes wereapplied. This is called tight corner brakingand results from each of the four tires being ata 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 “4WDAUTO”, “4WD LOCK” (Electronically con-trolled 4WD) or “SNOW” (S-AWC) in accor-dance with the road conditions, and thengradually depress the ac
celerator pedal for a
smooth start.
