ALL-wHEEL DRIvE SYSTEM: 4 wheel drive (4wD) (3/3)
All-wheel drive system
– Depending on the driving conditions, the system may switch automatically from “2WD” to “4WD”. In this case, the
“4WD” indicator light does not come on.
– Whichever mode is selected, do not start the engine if the rear wheels are on the ground and the front wheels are in the air
(e.g. vehicle jacked up) or if they are resting on rollers.
– Do not press the mode selector switch while cornering, reversing or if the wheels are slipping. Only select the “2WD”,
“AUTO” or “4WD Lock” mode when the vehicle is being driven in a straight line.
– When the engine warms up, the idle speed may be higher. Be careful when driving or stopping on slippery roads with the
“AUTO” mode selected.
– Only use tyres which meet the required specifications.
– Snow chains must only be fitted to the front wheels.
– This function is an additional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behaviour to be adapted to
suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not en-
courage you to drive more quickly. Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden incidents which may occur when driving).
– It is recommended not to use “4WD Lock” mode permanently when driving on roads in good condition.
– Always ensure tyres with identical specifications are fitted to all four wheels (brand, size, structure, wear etc.). Fitting tyres
of different sizes to the front and rear wheels and/or left and right wheels may have serious consequences for the tyres,
gearbox, transfer gearbox and the rear differential pinions.
