ACD control mode switchWhen the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position, operate
the AWC switch to change the control mode.
Each time the switch is pushed, the control mode changes in
the order “TARMAC” → “GRAVEL” → “SNOW” → “TAR-
MAC”.NOTE
The control mode can be changed while the vehicle is
moving.

The selected control mode is stored in memory even if the
engine is stopped.
However, if a battery terminal is disconnected, the control
mode stored in memory will be erased and the control
mode will be set to the “TARMAC” mode.
ACD control mode displayExample: “TARMAC” mode is selected.
The currently selected control mode is displayed on the multi-
information display.
In addition, when the control mode is changed, the selected
mode appears on the interrupt display screen of the information
screen in the multi-information display.
The control mode display will appear on the information
screen for a few seconds, and then the original screen will
return.
CAUTION
!
The ACD control mode display may flash under
aggressive driving conditions.
At this time, ACD control is temporarily suspended
in order to protect the ACD device, but this will not
affect normal driving.
After the vehicle is driven for a while, if the ACD
control mode display remains on, the ACD control
will start operating again.

ACD warning display
N00545700041
When there is a malfunction in the system, the warning dis-
play will appear on the information screen in the multi-infor-
mation display.
In addition, the ACD control mode display in section (A) will
go out at the same time.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature drops and the viscosity of the
AWC control fluid increases, the warning may be dis-
played.
At this time, ACD control is temporarily suspended, but
this will not affect normal driving.
After the vehicle is driven for a while, if the engine is
restarted after the AWC control fluid warms up or the
ambient temperature increases, the ACD control will start
operating again if the warning display goes out.
CAUTION
!
The system may be malfunctioning.
Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.
Restart the engine and check whether the warn-
ing display goes out.
If the warning display goes out, there is no
abnormal condition. If the warning display does
not go out or appears frequently, it is not necessary
to stop the vehicle immediately, but we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected.
