•This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speeds above 19 mph
(30 km/h) and is shifted to AWD AUTO mode at speeds above 25 mph
(40 km/h). If the vehicle decelerates to speeds below approximately 25
mph (40 km/h), however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK
mode again
When the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the
drive power is delivered entirely to the front wheels. This shock is not a
mechanical failure.
