Driving on dry paved road and highway
Select the "2H" or "4H" position to drive on the dry paved
road. Especially on dry highway, never select the "4HLc" or
"4LLc" position.
CAUTION
!
● Selecting the "4HLc" or "4LLc" position to drive on
dry paved road will increase the fuel consumption
with possible noise generation and early tyre wear.
It may also increase the differential oil temperature,
resulting in possible damage to the driving system.
Further, the drive train will be subjected to excessive
loading, possibly leading to oil leakage, component
seizure, or other serious faults.
Driving on snowy or icy roads
Set the transfer shift lever to the "4H" or "4HLc" position in
accordance with the road conditions, and then gradually
depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start.
NOTE
● The use of snow tyres and/or tyre chains is recommended.
● In order to ensure that the anti-lock brake system (ABS)
will operate correctly in situations where tyre chains have
been fitted, drive in the "4H", "4HLc" or "4LLc" position.
● Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, avoid sudden
braking, and use engine braking (downshifting).
CAUTION
!
● Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration, and
sharp turning; such operations could cause skidding
and spinouts.
Driving on sandy or muddy roads
Set the transfer shift lever to the "4HLc" or "4LLc" position
and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth
start. Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal as constant as
possible, and drive at low speed.
