NOTICE
Do not drive on a dry paved surface
in “H4L” mode. This may damage the
locking mechanism and the drive sys-
tem.
To shift from “H4L” to “H2·H4” move
the front drive control lever.
This can be done at any vehicle speed.
If the indicator light flashes when you shift
the transfer into “H2·H4”, drive straight
ahead while accelerating or decelerating,
or drive in reverse.
SHIFTING BETWEEN “H4L” AND “L4L”
To shift from “H4L” to “L4L”, stop the
vehicle and put the transmission in “N”.
With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, move the front drive control lever.

Rear differential lock system
The rear differential lock system is pro-
vided for use only when wheel spinning
occurs in a ditch or on a slippery or
ragged surface.
This differential lock system is effective in
case one of the rear wheels is spinning.
Before using the rear differential lock sys-
tem, first shift the front drive control into
“L4” (lever type) or “L4L” (lever/button
type) to see if it works. If this has no
effect, additionally use the rear differential
lock system.
