Differential Unlock (TURF Mode)
Press the top of the driveline mode switch to engage All Wheel Drive (AWD).
The 4X4 indicator illuminates in the rider information center to indicate that the
vehicle is in AWD. When the AWD switch is on, the front gearcase will
automatically engage any time the rear wheels lose traction. When the rear
wheels regain traction, the front gearcase will automatically disengage. There is
no limit to the length of time the vehicle may remain in AWD. Initially, the
vehicle's electronic system will not enable the AWD until the engine RPM is
below 3100. Once enabled, the AWD remains enabled until the switch is turned
off. If the switch is turned off while the front gearcase is moving, it will not
disengage until the rear wheels regain traction.
Engage the AWD before getting into conditions where front wheel drive may be
needed. If the rear wheels are spinning, release the throttle before switching to
AWD.
DISENGAGING AWD
Move the driveline mode switch to the center or bottom position to disengage
AWD. If the switch is turned off while the front hubs are driving, they will not
release until the rear wheels regain traction.
In some situations, the front gearcase may remain locked after turning the AWD
switch off. If this occurs, you may notice increased steering effort and some
vehicle speed restriction. Perform the following procedure to unlock the front
gearcase.
To disengage AWD, do the following:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Operate in reverse for at least 10 feet (3 m).
3. Stop completely.
