Equipped)
This system offers the driver two-wheel
drive high, four-wheel drive high, and
four-wheel drive low as available modes
of operation.
When you select four-wheel drive high or
four-wheel drive low, the system provides
mechanically locked four-wheel drive
power to both the front and rear wheels
for use in off-road or slippery conditions
such as deep snow, sand or mud.
Selecting four-wheel drive low also
provides additional gearing for increased
torque multiplication for conditions like
deep sand, steep slopes, or pulling heavy
objects.

WITH 4A MODE
Advanced 4x4 With Automatic On
Demand Engagement (If Equipped)
This system monitors various vehicle
sensory inputs to provide an increased
level of performance. This system offers
the driver two-wheel drive high (2H),
four-wheel drive auto (4A), four-wheel

provides additional gearing for increased
torque multiplication for conditions like
deep sand, steep slopes, or pulling heavy
objects.

PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Vehicles with a higher
center of gravity (utility and four-wheel
drive vehicles) handle differently than
vehicles with a lower center of gravity
(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,
excessive speed and abrupt steering in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously
increases the risk of losing control of your
vehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of four-wheel
drive vehicles. Although a four-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.
Truck and utility vehicles can differ from
some other vehicles. Your vehicle could be
higher to allow it to travel over rough
terrain without getting stuck or damaging
underbody components. The differences
that make your vehicle so versatile also
make it handle differently than an ordinary
passenger car. Always maintain steering
wheel control, especially in rough terrain.
Since sudden changes in terrain can result
