same speed. Pro-longed driving in the 4L position on dry hard surfaced roads may
cause increased tire wear and damage to driveline components. Take care not to
over rev the engine when driving in this mode. When operating your vehicle in 4L, the
engine speed (RPM) is considerably higher than that of the 4H position at a given
road speed.

Your vehicle is equipped to shift from 2H to 4H mode at any vehicle speed. To shift
from 2H to 4H turn the 4WD selector switch to the 4H position. Once the shifting is
complete, the 4WD HIGH lamp in the instrument cluster illuminates. If the lamp does
not come on, drive straight ahead accelerating or decelerating. If the lamp still does
not come ON, contact your Authorized Mahindra Dealer. There may be a malfunction
in the four wheel drive system.
Never operate the selector switch knob if the wheels are slipping. Stop the
slipping or spinning before operating.
To shift from 4H to 2H, turn the selector switch to the 2H position. This can be done
at any speed and the 4WD HIGH lamp in the instrument cluster goes off. If the lamp
continues to illuminate, drive straight ahead accelerating or decelerating, or drive
forward and backward in a short distance. If the lamp continues to illuminate,
contact an Authorized Mahindra Dealer. There may be a malfunction in your four
wheel drive system.
