operating mode, the distribution of the
t o r q u e b e t w e e n t h e f r o n t a n d r e a r a x l e s
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
guaranteeing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are
available and can be selected manually
by the driver in accordance with his
requirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h) .
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A . Display on the instrument panel

the form of an intermittent display on
the instrument panel display when the
transmission mode is selected.
Selecting the transmission
mode

ommended when the level of grip
permits.
2WD (position 3)

wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a
tarmacked road on which the driver
considers that there is no risk of loss of
grip (dry road).
4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
p o o r o r d i f fi c u l t ( s a n d , m u d , s l o p e s , e t c . ) .
System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.
