All Wheel Drive (AWD) System
The All Wheel Drive system is
controlled by the AWD switch.
When the switch is off, the vehi-
cle is in rear wheel drive at all
times. When the switch is on, the
vehicle is in AWD and the front
wheels will automatically engage
any time the rear wheels lose trac-
tion. When the rear wheels regain
traction, the front wheels will automatically disengage.
NOTE:
The override switch allows activation of AWD in reverse if the AWD
switch is on. See page 34.
There is no limit to the length of time the vehicle may remain in AWD.
The AWD switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle is moving. If
the switch is turned off when the front hubs are driving, they will not
release until the rear wheels regain traction.
Switching to AWD while the rear wheels are spinning may cause severe drive
shaft and hub damage. Always switch to AWD while the rear wheels have
traction or are at rest.
