Before using the rear wiper, check
that no object is obstructing the
travel of the blade.
In frosty weather, make sure that
the wiper blades are not stuck by ice
(to avoid the risk of the motor over-
heating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. They should be replaced as
soon as they become less efficient.
This will occur approximately once
a year. Clean your windscreen reg-
ularly.

mode selector
Depending on the road conditions,
turning selector
1 enables the following
modes to be selected:
–

2WD

;
–


AUT
O
;
–


4WD Lock.
Transmission: 4-wheel drive (4WD)
TRANSMISSION: 4-wheel drive (4WD) (1/4) “AUTO" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “AUTO” position.
Operating principle
“AUTO” mode automatically distributes
the engine torque between the front and
rear axles according to the road condi-
tions and the vehicle speed. This po-
sition optimises roadholding. Use this
mode on any type of road (dry, snow-
covered, slippery, etc.) or when towing
(trailer or caravan). This mode is not in-
dicated on the instrument panel.
“2WD" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “2WD" position. The
‘ indica-
tor light will light up on the instrument
panel.
Operating principle
The “2WD” mode uses the front wheels
only. Use this mode on dry roads with
good grip.
Remember that driving a vehicle off-
road is very different to driving it on
the road.
To make the most of your vehicle
in an off-road situation, we recom-
mend that you are trained to drive a
4x4 (4WD) vehicle.
The safety of both you and your
passengers is your responsibility,
and depends on your skill and the
care you take when driving off-road.
