■The four-wheel drive control switch can be operated when
● The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
● The shift lever is in the “N” position.
● The vehicle is stopped completely.
■ The low speed four-wheel drive indicator light
The indicator light blinks while shifting between “H4” and “L4”.
■ Advice for driving on slippery roads
● If you shift the four-wheel drive control switch to “L4” and the shift lever to
the “2” range of “S” while driving in steep off-road areas, the output of the
brake can be controlled effectively by the Active TRAC, which assists the
driver to control the driving power of 4 wheels.
● Use the “1” range of “S” of the shift lever for maximum power and traction
when your wheels get stuck or when driving down a steep incline.
■ The center differential lock indicator light
The indicator light blinks while locking/unlocking the center differential.
■ The center differential lock/unlo ck button can be operated when
● The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
● The vehicle speed is less than 60 mph (100 km/h).
■ Locking/unlocking the center differential
● When the center differential is locked, VSC (vehicle stability control) is
automatically turned off. (The center differential lock and “VSC OFF” indi-
cator lights come on.)
● If the operation is not completed, the center differential lock indicator
blinks. If the indicator light does not turn off when unlocking the center
differential, drive straight ahead while accelerating or decelerating, or
drive in reverse.
● If the center differential lock/unlock is not completed within 5 seconds
while the cruise control system is on, cancel the cruise control system.

■If the low speed four-wheel drive in dicator light or the center differen-
tial lock indicator light blinks
● If the low speed four-wheel drive indicator light continues to blink when
using the four-wheel drive control switch, stop the vehicle completely,
move the shift lever to “N” and operate the switch again.
● If the shift lever is moved before the low speed four-wheel drive indicator
light has turned on/off, a beep sounds and the transfer position may not
successfully change. In this case, stop the vehicle completely, return the
shift lever to “N” and operate the switch again.
● If the engine coolant temperature is too low, the four-wheel drive control
system may not be able to shift. When the engine is warmer press the
switch again.
If the low speed four-wheel drive indicator light or the center differential lock
indicator light continues to blink even after attempting the above, there may
be a malfunction in the engine, the brake system or the four-wheel drive sys-
tem. In this case, you may not be able to shift between “H4” and “L4”, and
the center differential lock may not be operable. Have the vehicle inspected
by your Toyota dealer immediately.
