Sounds and vibrations caused by the Crawl Control system
A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the engine is
started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indicate
that a malfunction has occurred in Crawl Control system.
Either of the following conditions may occur when the Crawl Control system
is operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.
CAUTION
When using Crawl Control
Do not overly rely on Crawl Control. This function does not extend the
vehicle's performance limitations. Always check the terrain thoroughly and
drive safely.
The recommended speed modes for the listed terrains (→P. 251) are only
a reference. The selected mode may not be suitable to actual off-road con-
ditions due to factors such as the type or unevenness of the terrain or the
degree of incline. Check the actual terrain thoroughly and drive safely.
After activating Crawl Control, make sure that the Crawl Control indicator
comes on. If the indicator flashes, the vehicle is not under system control.
Conditions under which the system may not operate correctly
When driving on the following surfaces, the system may not be able to
maintain a fixed low speed, which may result in an accident:
Extremely steep inclines
Extremely uneven surfaces
Snow-covered roads, or other slippery surfaces
