All Wheel Drive
A ll W h ee l Driv e ( A W D ) is an act ive -on-
demand system that engages
automatically, with no action required by
the driver. Depending on the driving
environment, the vehicle switches between
two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, to
give the vehicle more traction and stability
when necessary.
If the front wheels begin to slip, the rear
wheels will automatically begin to drive the
vehicle as required.
More torque is transferred to the wheels
that have the most traction, so the vehicle
has optimum grip at all times.
There may be a slight engagement noise
during hard use.
As well as enabling the vehicle to be driven
off-road, this system also enables the
vehic le to be driven on norm al roads
without incurring excessive tyre and
drivetrain wear or causing poor control.

All Wheel Drive control ind icator
When the ignition is switched on,
control indicator B illuminates for approx.
4 seconds. The system is ready for
op eration when the control indicator
extinguishes.
If the control indicator flashes during
driving, All Wheel Drive is temporarily
disab led.
If it fla shes brie fly then ex ting uishes, this is
normal and does not indicate a fault.
If the control indicator flashes
continuously, there is a fault in the system.
Consult a workshop as soon as possible.
On-road dr iving
The increased traction of All Wheel Drive
vehicles offers greater driving control in
adverse road conditions, particularly
heavy snow and ice. However, All Wheel
Drive vehicles are not "skid-proof" and do
not decrease stopping distances.
All Wheel Drive vehicles have a higher
centre of gravity than conventiona l
vehicles. Always approach curves at an
appropriate driving speed. Do not attempt
to go as fast throug h turns as you might in
a conventional vehicle.
Strong crossw inds can affect the normal
steering of the ve hicle. Driv e slower under
strong crosswind conditions.
