Four-wheel drive system—
(a) Four-wheel drive control
Use the four-wheel drive control lever
to select the following transfer modes.
"H" (high speed position, center dif-
ferential unlocked): Lever at "H"
Use this for normal driving on all types of
roads, from dry hard-surfaced roads to
wet, icy or snow-covered roads. This
position gives greater economy, quietest
ride, least wear and better vehicle control.
"N" (neutral position): Lever at "N"
No power is delivered to the wheels. The
vehicle must be stopped.

"L" (low speed position, four-wheel
drive): Lever at "L"
Use this for maximum power and traction,
when you experience a loss of power,
such as wheel slipping or hard pulling, in
the "H" position.
The indicator light tells when the center
differential lock is engaged. Note that the
differential is not still locked as long as the
indicator light remains off.
If the indicator light does not come on
when the lever is in the "L" position, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er as soon as possible.
See "(b) Shifting procedure (with anti- lock
brake system)" for further instructions.
In this position, the anti-lock brake sys-
tem does not operate. See "Brake sys-
tem" in Part 2.

(b) Shifting procedure
To shift between "H" and "L", stop the
vehicle, put the transmission into "P" or
"N" and move the four-wheel drive control
lever.
CAUTION
!
Never move the four-wheel drive
control lever if wheels are slipping.
Stop the slipping or spinning before
shifting.
