The active torque control 4WD system
controls the engine torque that is ap-
plied to the rear wheels according to
the driving conditions and road condi-
tions. When the vehicle’s driving condi-
tions are stable such as driving straight
ahead, the engine torque is applied to
only the front wheels.
FOUR- WHEEL DRIVE LOCK SWITCH
When the vehicle is driven on loose
surfaces, such as sand, gravel, or deep
snow, or if the vehicle gets stuck,
pushing
the four- wheel drive lock
switch to ensure that the engine torque
is applied to the 4 wheels.

pushed, the four- wheel drive lock indicator
light blinks twice and remains on until the
four- wheel drive lock is canceled.
To cancel the four- wheel drive lock, push
the switch once again and the four- wheel
drive lock indicator light will go off.
