FEATURES AND CONTROLS
All Wheel Drive (AWD) System
Disengaging Wheel Hubs
The hubs normally disengage when operating in reverse. However, one
or both hubs may occasionally remain engaged. If the handlebars pull to
one side, one front hub is engaged. If both hubs are engaged, steering
effort increases but remains balanced from left to right, and vehicle
speed is somewhat restricted.
1. Stop the vehicle and shift to reverse gear.
2. Operate in reverse for a short distance.
3. Stop the vehicle and shift to forward gear.
NOTE:
If the hubs remain engaged after following this procedure, return the
vehicle to your dealer for service.
To continue using AWD while operating in reverse, activate both the
override switch and the AWD switch. See page 34.
Tool Kit
To help you perform routine maintenance, a tool kit is provided in the
storage compartment under the seat. Items included in the kit are:
• Screwdriver
• Open end wrench (8-10 mm)
• Open end wrench (12-14 mm)
• Box end wrench
• Tire pressure gauge
• Spark plug wrench and handle
WARNING
Operating with only one front hub engaged could result in loss of control,
accident, and severe injury or death. When hub engagement symptoms are
present, use the disengaging procedure before proceeding.
