Displays when the system automatically disables to protect itself. This
may be caused by operating the vehicle with the compact tire installed,
if the system is overheating or if there is an issue with another vehicle
system preventing AWD operation. The system resumes normal
operation and clears this message after cycling the ignition on and
off and driving a short distance with the road tire re-installed, after
the system is allowed to cool or after the other vehicle system issues
are resolved.
Displays in conjunction with the powertrain malfunction or reduced
power light when the system is not operating properly. If the message
stays on or continues to come on, contact your authorized dealer as
soon as possible.
