Shifting
to rear-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive can
be made by operating the transfer shift lever (A).
Shift the transfer shift lever to an appropriate posi-
tion according to the road surface conditions. In ad-
dition, the 2WD/4WD operation indication lamp in-
dicates the transfer shift lever shifting state. Refer
to “2WD/4WD operation indication lamp” on page
4-28.

l On
vehicles with automatic transmission,
when the transfer shift lever is in “4L”, the
transmission will not shift into the overdrive
gear. CAUTION
l
The
“4L” range gives maximum torque
for lowspeed driving on steep slopes, as
well as sandy, muddy, and other difficult
surfaces. On vehicles with automatic
transmission, do not exceed speeds of ap-
proximately 70 km/h (43 mph) in “4L”
range.
l Do not drive your vehicle in the “4H” or
“4L” on dry paved roads and highways.
Doing so may result in excessive tyre
wear, increased fuel consumption, and
possible noise generation. It may also in-
crease the differential oil temperature,
which may damage the drive system. Fur-
ther, the drive train will be subjected to
excessive loading, resulting in oil leakage,
component seizure, or other serious prob-
lems. On dry paved roads and highways,
drive the vehicle in “2H” only. Starting and driving

NOTE l On
vehicles with automatic transmission,
when the transfer shift lever is in “4LLc”, the
transmission will not shift into the overdrive
gear. CAUTION
l
The
“4LLc” range gives maximum tor-
que for low-speed driving on steep slopes,
as well as sandy, muddy, and other diffi-
cult surfaces. On vehicles with automatic
transmission, do not exceed speeds of ap-
proximately 70 km/h (43 mph) in “4LLc”
range.
l Do not drive your vehicle in the “4HLc”
or “4LLc” on dry paved roads and high-
ways. Doing so may result in excessive
tyre wear, increased fuel consumption,
and possible noise generation. It may also
increase the differential oil temperature,
which may damage the drive system. Fur-

NOTE l The
2WD/4WD operation indication lamp
blinks while the selection is in process. Take the following precautions when the indica-
tion lamp is blinking or remains off.
• Keep
the steering wheel in the straight
ahead position while making range selec-
tions. If you attempt to drive forward
with the steering wheel turned, gear rat-
tling may occur and the desired range
may not actually be selected.
• If you move the transfer shift lever from “4H” to “4HLc” while the vehicle is sta-
tionary, keep your speed initially very
low when you subsequently make a stand-
ing start. Before driving at normal
speeds, confirm that the centre differen-
tial lock lamp has changed from blinking
to steady illumination.
• If you move the transfer shift lever from “4HLc” to “4H” and the centre differen-
tial lock lamp does not stop blinking,
place the steering wheel in the straight
ahead position and slowly depress the ac-
celerator pedal several times.
• If you move the transfer shift lever from “4H” to “2H” and the front wheel lamp
does not stop blinking, confirm safety
around the vehicle then accelerate, decel-
erate, and reverse until the front wheel
lamp goes off. When the front wheel
lamp goes off, you can then proceed to
drive the vehicle.
If you accelerate, decelerate, and reverse
but the front wheel lamp still does not
stop blinking, return the transfer shift lev-
er to “4H” then have your vehicle inspec-
ted. l
When you move the transfer shift lever from
“4H” to “4HLc”, there may be a slight delay
before the centre differential lock lamp illu-
minates. Starting and driving

Rear differential lock*
E00606200115
If
one wheel starts to spin freely and the vehicle be-
comes stuck and cannot be freed even using 4-
wheel drive, the rear differential lock switch (A)
can be used to activate the rear differential lock for
extra traction. Operating the rear differential lock
1. Move
the transfer shift lever to “4L” or “4H”
position (easy select 4WD), “4LLc” or
“4HLc” position (super select 4WD).
2. To activate the rear differential lock, press the rear differential lock switch (1). 3. To
deactivate the rear differential lock, press
the rear differential lock switch (2). CAUTION
l
Operate
the rear differential lock switch
after the wheels are stopped. Operating
the switch with the wheels turning may
cause the vehicle to dart in unexpected di-
rections.
NOTE l The
rear differential lock does not operate
when the transfer shift lever is in “2H” posi-
tion (easy select 4WD), “2H” or “4H” posi-
tion (super select 4WD).
l When the rear differential is locked with the
transfer shift lever in “4L” or “4H” position
(easy select 4WD), “4LLc” or “4HLc” posi-
tion (super select 4WD) changing the shift
lever to “2H” position (easy select 4WD),
“2H” or “4H” position (super select 4WD)
makes the rear differential unlock automati-
cally. The rear differential lock indication

When
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” po-
sition, the rear differential lock indication lamp (A)

then indicates the rear differential lock’s operating
status (activated or deactivated).

lock is being switched between its
activated and deactivated conditions. When
the switching operation is complete, the indi-
cation lamp is either illuminated steadily or
not illuminated.
l On vehicles with the active stability & trac-
tion control (ASTC) and anti-lock brake sys-
tem (ABS), the ASTC and ABS functions
are suspended while the rear differential lock
is activated. ASTC indication lamp, ASTC
OFF indication lamp and ABS warning lamp
are illuminated while these functions are sus-
pended. It does not indicate a problem. When
the rear differential lock is disengaged, these
lamps go out and function again.
Refer to “ABS warning lamp” on page 4-45,
“ASTC indication lamp, ASTC OFF indica-
tion lamp” on page 4-48.
l On vehicles with the anti-lock brake system
(ABS), the ABS function is suspended while
the rear differential lock is activated.
The ABS warning lamp is illuminated while
ABS functionality is suspended.
Refer to “ABS warning lamp” on page 4-45.
l If the indication lamp continues blinking af-
ter the switch has been pressed to deactivate
the rear differential lock, hold the steering
wheel in the straight ahead position then slow-
ly depress and release the accelerator pedal
several times.
