HOW DOES ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
WORK
Your all-wheel drive vehicle is not intended
for off-road use. The AWD feature gives
your vehicle some limited off-road
capabilities in which driving surfaces are
relatively level, obstruction-free and
otherwise similar to normal on-road driving
conditions. Operating your vehicle in
conditions other than those, could subject
the vehicle to excess stress which might
result in damage which is not covered
under your warranty.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of all-wheel
drive vehicles. Although an all-wheel
drive vehicle may accelerate better than
a two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won't stop any faster than
two-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive
at a safe speed.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
LIMITATIONS
Using different size tires other than the
provided spare could cause system
damage or disable the all-wheel drive
system.
