FEATURES AND CONTROLS
All Wheel Drive System
The All Wheel Drive system is controlled by the 4X4 switch.
ADC 4X4 Mode (if equipped)
When the switch is on ADC 4X4, the ADC system allows engine
braking to all six (6) wheels when the vehicle descends a hill or incline.
Always move the 4X4 switch to ADC 4X4 before ascending or
descending a hill. See page 37.
AWD Mode
When the switch is on 4X4, the vehicle is in all wheel drive, and the
AWD indicator light in the instrument cluster will be on.
When in AWD, the demand drive unit will automatically engage any
time the rear wheels lose traction. When the rear wheels regain traction,
the demand drive unit will automatically disengage. There is no limit to
the length of time the vehicle may remain in AWD.
2X4 Mode
When the switch is on 2X4, the middle and rear wheels drive at all
times.
Engaging AWD
The 4X4 switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving.
Initially, the vehicle's electronic system will not enable 4X4 until the
engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, 4X4 remains enabled until
the 4X4 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 4X4 switch before getting into conditions where front wheel
drive may be needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the throttle
before switching to 4X4.
NOTICE: Switching to 4X4 or ADC 4X4 (if equipped) while the rear wheels are
spinning may cause severe drive shaft and gearcase damage.
Always switch to 4X4 or ADC 4X4 (if equipped) while the rear wheels
have traction or are at rest.
