• The 4x4 ON mode provides

four-wheel drive with full power

to both axles at all times. It is

only intended for severe or

off-road driving conditions, such

as deep snow and ice (where no

dry or wet pavement remains

uncovered) and shallow sand or

mud.

• The vehicle should not be operated in the 4x4 ON mode on dry

or merely wet pavement. Doing so will produce excessive noise,

increase tire wear and may damage driveline components. The

4x4 ON mode is intended for use only on consistently slippery

or loose surfaces.

• If your vehicle is equipped with this 4x4 system, a spare tire of

a different diameter than the road tires should never be used.

Such a tire could result in damage to driveline components and

make the vehicle difficult to control.

Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles are not designed for

cornering at speeds as high as passenger cars any more than

low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under

off-road conditions. Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers in these

vehicles.
