Starting and driving
Driving hints
When extricating the vehicle from mud, sand or fresh snow
with the transfer shift lever in the "2H", "4H", or "4HLc" posi-
tion, you may find that operation of the ASTC prevents the
engine speed from increasing in response to depression of the
accelerator pedal. If this happens and the vehicle remains stuck
as a result, place the transfer shift lever in the "4LLc" position
or turn the active stability control switch OFF. The vehicle will
then be easier to extricate. (Brake control of the active traction
control function is still working to prevent wheel spins when
ASC OFF switch "OFF" or "4LLc" position selected.)
NOTE
● If the vehicle speed increases to about 120 km/h (75 mph)
with the active stability control function deactivated, the
4 active stability control function automatically starts oper-
ating. To subsequently stop the active stability control
function, stop the vehicle and press the ASC OFF switch
again.

Active stability control function
E00618100036
The active stability control function is designed to help main-
tain the vehicle's control in slippery conditions, or during rapid
steering maneuvers. It works by controlling the engine output
and brake on each wheel.
NOTE
● The active stability control function does not operate
when the transfer shift lever is in the "4LLc" position.
When the active stability control function is operating
with the transfer shift lever in the "2H", "4H" or "4HLc"
position, moving the shift lever to the "4LLc" position
makes the active stability control function deactivate auto-
matically.
● On vehicles with rear differential lock, the active stability
control function does not operate when the rear differen-
tial lock is activated.
