ENGAGING AWD
The AWD switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving. Initially, the
vehicle's electronic system will not enable AWD until the engine RPM is below
3000. Once enabled, AWD remains enabled until the AWD 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.
Engage the AWD switch 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 ADC 4X4 while the rear wheels are spinning may cause
severe drive shaft and gearcase damage. Always switch to AWD or ADC 4X4
while the rear wheels have traction or are at rest.
