When All Wheel Drive (AWD) is
activated, driving forces are distributed
appropriately to front and rear wheels.
It could improve driving performance by
maximizing the driving force of vehicles
on severe road conditions such as steep
hills, unpaved, slippery, etc.
Advantage of electronic AWD
1. Improvement of straight stability
2. Improvement of driving performance
on curve
3. Secure stability on severe condition
such as wet and sandy roads.
4. Improvement of energy efficiency
from driving mode automatic control.
Information
AWD vehicles could change the
engagement status of the motor
according to the situation required. Auto
changing the driving mode(2WD/AWD)
helps improve energy efficiency and
driving stability.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH:
ś Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
ś Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
ś The risk of a rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
ś Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
ś In the event your vehicle leaves the
roadway, do not steer sharply. Instead,
slow down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
NOTICE
ś Do not drive in water if the water
level is higher than the bottom of the
vehicle.
ś Check your brake condition once you
are out of mud or water. Depress the
brake pedal several times as you move
slowly until you feel normal braking
condition is returned.
ś Shorten your scheduled maintenance
interval if you drive in off-road
conditions such as sand, mud or water
(Refer to the "Maintenance Under
Severe Usage Conditions" section in
chapter 9).
ś Always wash your vehicle thoroughly
after off road use, especially the
bottom of the vehicle.
ś Be sure to equip the vehicle with four
tires of the same size and type.
ś Make sure that a full time AWD vehicle
is towed by a flat bed tow truck.
All Wheel Drive (AWD) Operation
Auto AWD mode (Normal diving)
If the AWD system determines there is
a need for four wheel drive, the motor’s
driving power is distributed to all four
wheels automatically.
