There may be a case that it is difficult to From "4L" position to "4H" position operate the transfer lever or the gear noise occurs after driving the vehicle for a while in the cold weather. There may be a possibility of difficulty to shift the transfer lever from "4H" position to "4L" position. In this case, shift the transfer lever into "4H" position or "2H" position
and then operate the transfer lever again after driving for a while.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Cruise control (if equipped)
The cruise control system allows you to maintain a steady speed without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal. The controls for operating the cruise control system are on the steering wheel.
You can use the cruise control system under the following conditions: For manual transmission vehicle, the gear position is in 3rd, 4th, 5th. For automatic transmission vehicle, the gearshift lever is in "D" position. When the transfer lever is in "2H" or "4H" position, When 4WD indicator light does not blink, The vehicle speed is about 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher.
A, WARNING
To help avoid loss of vehicle control, do not use the cruise control system when driving in heavy traffic, on slippery or winding roads, or on steep downhills.

Changing cruising speed
Using the accelerator pedal To reset at a faster cruising speed, accelerate to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal and push down the "RES +/SET-" switch (3). The new speed will be main
tained.
Using the brake pedal To reset at a slower cruising speed, decelerate to the desired speed using the brake pedal and push down the "RES +/SET -" switch (3). The new speed will be main
tained.
NOTE: When the brake pedal is depressed, "SET" indicator light (5) or set indicator (7) goes off until the cruising speed is reset.
Using "RES +/SET-" switch To reset at a faster cruising speed, press repeatedly or hold push up the "RES +/ SET -" switch (3). Vehicle speed will steadily increase. When you release the switch, the new speed will be maintained.
To reset at a slower cruising speed, press repeatedly or hold push down the "RES +/ SET -" switch (3) until the vehicle has slowed to the desired speed, and then release the switch. The new speed will be maintained.
NOTE: You can adjust the set speed by approximately 1 km/h (1 mph) by pushing "RES +/ SET-" switch quickly
Cancelling cruise control
"SET' indicator light (5) or set indicator (7) will go off and the cruise control will be canceled temporarily with the following conditions:
Push "CANCEL" switch (2). Depress the brake pedal. For manual transmission vehicle, depress the clutch pedal. For automatic transmission vehicle, the gear position is changed to "L" When the transfer lever is operated, The vehicle speed falls more than about 20 percent from the set speed. Any time the vehicle speed falls below 40 km/h (25 mph). When the vehicle skids and ESP® is activated.
To resume the previously set speed, push up the "RES +/SET-" switch (3) and turn on "SET' indicator light (5) or set indicator (7). The vehicle speed must be above 40 km/h (25 mph) when the vehicle is not under the above conditions.

..
A WARNING
The function of the traffic sign recognition has limits and may not function properly depending on the driving conditions of circumstances. Do not rely excessively on this function and always drive in a safe man~ ner.
3-39
NOTE: The traffic sign may be shown with delay on the information display depending on the circumstances and conditions of the vehicle The number of the traffic sign for this function shows up to three signs on the information display The traffic signs are disappeared on the information display under the following situations -When the vehicle was run in constant distance after showing the traffic signs on the information display (except for regulation end sign}, -When a period of time passed after the traffic signs on the information display (only for regulation end sign), -When turning right or left with the turn signal lights blinked, -For manual transmission vehicle, the gearshift lever is in "R" position, for automatic transmission vehicle, the gearshift lever is in "P" or "R" position (except for speed limit sign). To change the traffic sign recognition setting, select "Sign recog." in "Setting mode" on the information display. Then, select "ON" or "OFF"
When the ignition switch was turned "OFF" with the speed limit sign shown on the information display and then the ignition switch is fumed "ON" again, the information display shows the same speed limit sign the last time the ignition switch was fumed "OFF" When you drive in the area where unit of velocity is changed, the traffic signs may not be appeared or the different traffic signs may be appeared on the information display after passing the actual traffic signs. This is not a malfunction. The display will be resumed after driving for a while. The speed limit sign on the information display that is higher or lower than the actual limited speed sign may be displayed for the speed limit sign
DRIVING TIPS
Driving on hills
Manual transmission
78RB04002
Automatic transmission
78RB04001
4-11
When driving on steep hills, the vehicle may begin to slow down and show a lack of power. If this happens, you should shift to a lower gear so that the engine will again be operating in its higher power range. Shift rapidly to prevent the vehicle from losing momentum. When driving down a hill, the engine should be used for braking by shifting to the next lower gear.
A WARNING
Do not hold the brake pedal down too long or too often while going down a steep or long hill. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in reduced braking efficiency. Failure to take this precaution could result in loss of vehicle control.
NOTICE
When descending a downhill, Never turn the ignition key to "LOCK" posiM lion. Emission control system and automatic transmission damage may result.
