4WD operation
• The main goal of 4WD Lock mode is to allow a driver to maximise the
vehicle’s traction under extreme driving conditions such as unpaved
off-road, sandy roads, and muddy roads.
• 4WD Lock mode is in operation only when a vehicle travels at 60 km/h
or less. When travelling at 60 km/h or faster, the mode will switch to
4WD Auto.
• When 4WD Lock mode illuminates, the cluster does not display the
front/rear wheel traction force distribution status.
• Press the 4WD Lock mode switch again to switch back to 4WD Auto.
