TIP●
Due to the synchronizing mechanism in
the differential gear case, the four-wheel-
drive indicator may not come on until the
Rhino starts moving.
●
When the On-Command differential gear
lock switch is set to “LOCK” or “4WD”, the
indicator “ ” and the indicator light
“DIFF. LOCK” will flash until the differen-
tial gear is completely locked or un-
locked. If the indicator and the indicator
light continue to flash, the differential is
not completely locked or unlocked. In this
case, start moving to allow time for the
differential to lock or unlock.
5B410002Coolant temperature warning light “ ”
If the coolant temperature reaches a specific
level, this light comes on to warn that the cool-
ant temperature is too hot. If the light comes
on during operation, stop the engine as soon
as it is safe to do so and allow the engine to
cool down for about 10 minutes.
(See page 8-62.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light can
be checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the
warning light does not come on initially when
