When the vehicle speed exceeds 40 km/h
(25 mph), the four−wheel drive lock will
be cancelled automatically.
The four−wheel drive lock indicator will
come on for a few seconds when the
ignition key is turned to "ON".
If the indicator light does not come on
when the ignition key is turned to "ON" or
the four−wheel drive lock switch
pushed, contact your Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
Use the four−wheel drive lock only
when driving on the loose surfaces,
such as sand, gravel, or deep snow,
or if the vehicle gets stuck. After the
four−wheel drive lock is used to pro-
vide traction, cancel the four−wheel
drive lock. Using the four−wheel drive
lock at other times may cause dam-
age to the four−wheel drive system.

while the light is flashing, the system au-
tomatically shuts off the engine torque that
