tions cannot be switched using the VSC OFF switch or the menu and “ENTER”

■When selecting a terrain mode
If you are unsure which mode is appropriate, select MOGUL when the four-wheel
drive control switch is in L4 or select MUD & SAND when it is in H4.
■When it is difficult to generate traction
MUD & SAND mode provides the largest amount of tire slippage, followed by
LOOSE ROCK, MOGUL and ROCK mode.
Drivability can be improved by selecting a mode which provides a smaller amount
of tire slippage than the current mode when the amount of tire slippage is large, or
conversely selecting a mode which provides a larger amount of tire slippage than
the current mode when the amount of tire slippage is small.
