HOW DOES ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
WORK
The all-wheel drive system is designed tocontinuously monitor and adjust powerdelivery to the front and rear wheels tooptimize both traction and handling. TheAWD system turns on when needed anddoes not require input from you.
Your all-wheel drive vehicle is not intendedfor off-road use. The AWD feature gives yourvehicle some limited off-road capabilities inwhich driving surfaces are relatively level,obstruction-free and otherwise similar tonormal on-road driving conditions. Operatingyour vehicle in conditions other than those,could subject the vehicle to excess stresswhich might result in damage which is notcovered under your warranty.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not becomeoverconfident in the ability of all-wheeldrive vehicles. Although an all-wheel drivevehicle may accelerate better than atwo-wheel drive vehicle in low tractionsituations, it won't stop any faster thantwo-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive ata safe speed.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE LIMITATIONS
Using different size tires other than theprovided spare could cause system damageor disable the all-wheel drive system.
