To lock the differential gear in 4WD, stop the vehi-
cle, make sure the On-Command four-wheel-drive
switch is set to “4WD”, move the select lever to po-
sition

WARNING
Always ride at a slow speed when the vehicle
is in 4WD-LOCK, and allow extra time and dis-
tance for maneuvers.
All wheels turn at the same speed when the dif-
ferential is locked, so it takes more effort to
turn the vehicle. The amount of effort is more
the faster you go. You may lose control and
have an accident if you cannot make a sharp
enough turn for the speed you are traveling.

NOTE:_

When the switch is set to “LOCK”, the differ-
ential gear lock indicator light will flash until
the differential gear is locked.


When the indicator light is flashing, turning
the steering wheel back and forth will help the
differential gear lock to engage.


Riding before the differential gear lock is
properly engaged (e.g., when the indicator
light is flashing) will cause the engine speed
to be limited until engagement is complete.
