2–18 STARTING AND OPERATING
CAUTIONS IN 4-WHEEL DRIVE
OPERATION
• Changing from high speed modes (2H,
4H) to low speed mode (4L) during driv-
ing is very dangerous, so the self con-
trol system controls not to happen (avail-
able when the vehicle speed is less than
3km/h).
• When the 4H or 4L mode is selected, the
relevant indicator in the instrument panel
will come on (4L only for TOD).
If the indicator continues to blink or two
indicators are come on simultaneously,
there might be malfunction in 4-wheel
drive system to be inspected.
• If you operate the switch, there could
be mechanical noises and shocks in
shift, however it is normal conditions oc-
curring in mode changes.
• Select the proper 4-wheel drive mode
according to road conditions (slippery,
steep hills, roughness, etc.)
• Never use 4-wheel drive operations as
engine brake while descending hills.
• 4-Wheel Drive doesn’t mean the perfect
protection for any conditions. Please rely
on safety driving habits other than
system.
ESP OFF SWITCH*
If you press the ESP OFF switch, the ESP
function stops and the indicator lamp in in-
strument panel comes on.
Press this switch again to resume the ESP
function. At this time, the indicator lamp goes
out.
If the ESP function operates while driving,
the indicator lamp flickers and the alarm
sounds.
ESP System*
The ESP system is an electronic vehicle sta-
bility control system and driving safety
supplementary system that helps to avoid
dangerous situations by applying brakes on
the wheels or the engine torque to compen-
sate vehicle stability when it is extremely
unstable under conditions such as sharp
cornering. This system also includes brake
assist function for the handicapped persons
because they depress the brake pedal softly
even when hard braking is required. If the
system recognizes that it is an emergency
case requires hard braking, it delivers high
braking pressure to the wheels. The ESP
function works when vehicle stability is very
unstable. The ESP system does not work
under normal driving conditions.
