FEATURES AND CONTROLS
All Wheel Drive System
The All Wheel Drive system
is controlled by the AWD
momentary switch.
Engage AWD before getting
into conditions where front
wheel drive may be needed.
If the rear wheels are
spinning, release the throttle
before switching to AWD.
NOTICE:
Switching to AWD or 4WDC AWD (if equipped) while the rear wheels
are spinning may cause severe drive shaft and gearcase damage.
Always switch to AWD or 4WDC AWD (if equipped) while the rear
wheels have traction or are at rest.
AWD Mode
Move the momentary switch to the far right
to engage AWD. AWD will engage when
engine speed slows to below 3100 RPM.
The gauge will display “AWD”.
There is no limit to the length of time the
vehicle may remain in AWD. The vehicle
automatically engages AWD when operating in reverse if the switch is
set to the AWD position.
Once enabled, AWD remains enabled until the switch is turned off. If
the switch is turned off while the demand drive unit is moving, it will
not disengage until the rear wheels regain traction.
When in AWD, the demand drive unit will automatically engage any
time the rear wheels lose traction. When the rear wheels regain traction,
the demand drive unit will automatically disengage.
2X4 Mode
Move the momentary switch to the far left
to operate in two-wheel drive. AWD will
disengage when engine speed slows to
below 3100 RPM. The gauge will display
“2X4”.
