Super Handling-All Wheel Drive (Sh-Awd) System - Honda 2007 RDX Owner's Manual

Driving with the Paddle Shifter, Super Handling-All Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) System
Starting in Second Gear
When you are in sequential shift
mode, and the vehicle is stopped,
pull the (right) paddle shifter to
shift to second gear. You will see ''M
2'' in the display. Starting in second
gear helps to reduce wheelspin in
deep snow or on a slippery surface.
Super Handling-All Wheel Drive
(SH-AWD) system
The super handling-all wheel drive
(SH-AWD) system is a full time all-
wheel-drive system that
automatically controls and transfers
varying amounts of engine torque to
all wheels independently, according
to the driving conditions.
While the SH-AWD system helps to
enhance the vehicle's driving
stability in all situations, it is still
your responsibility to drive and
corner at reasonable speeds and to
leave a sufficient margin of safety.
