(Depending on the vehicle)

The drive system of this vehicle is either two-wheel drive or adaptive all-wheel drive, depending on the vehicle specification, and for all-wheel drive specifications, no manual operation is required. For all-wheel drive specifications, the system can intelligently switch between two-wheel drive and all-wheel drive modes depending on the vehicle operating conditions.

When driving on better roads, the vehicle intelligently switches to 2WD mode to ensure comfort and economy. When driving on slippery, muddy, snowy, sandy, or complex roads, the adaptive all-wheel drive system can respond quickly when starting, climbing, accelerating at medium to high speeds, and making tight turns.

It switches between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, intelligently distributes torque, ensures traction on all four wheels, achieves the best possible driveability and safety, and ensures the stability and comfort of the vehicle.

Note: As your all-wheel drive vehicle is driven at a constant speed or shifted, the automatic transmission learns on its own to increase durability and maintain peak functionality. Shifts may not be smooth during initial driving, but the quality of shifts improves with repeated cruising and shifting.

Other notes

When conducting the "speedometer tolerance exceeding test" as part of the vehicle's regular inspection, vehicles with full-time four-wheel drive must be tested using a roll tester designed for four-wheel drive (4WD). If the test is performed using a roll tester for two-wheel drive (2WD) vehicles, there is a risk of damage to the internal components of the transfer case and potential safety hazards due to vehicle detachment, so caution is required.

However, if it is unavoidable to perform the test on the Roll Tester for 2WD, please observe the following procedures.

  • Check the tyre pressure regulations.
  • Position the front wheels on the first speedometer test roll tester 1.
  • Release the parking brake.
  • Place the rear wheels on the second free roll device 2.
  • To prevent vehicle detachment and safety accidents during the inspection, conduct the test from a position away from the front of the vehicle.
warning
  • If the instrument panel displays a four-wheel drive system error message, contact an authorized service center as soon as possible.
  • If the instrument panel displays a message about the all-wheel drive system overheating, it may be due to the all-wheel drive system repeatedly activating and overheating when driving the vehicle on sandy, slippery, or snowy roads. In this case, you should stop operating your vehicle. To restore all-wheel drive capability in the shortest amount of time, select AUTO HOLD or engage the gear lever in P or N and wait for the all-wheel drive system to cool down. After waiting at least 15 minutes, restart your vehicle after the system has returned to a normal state.
  • If the overheating message displays more than two times and you are still unable to correct the problem, stop all attempts and contact an authorized service center.
  • For vehicles equipped with a four-wheel drive system, trailers for two-wheel drive vehicles are not permitted under any circumstances.
  • Fluids in the torque manager, power take-off, rear drive system, etc. do not need to be changed.
  • Do not arbitrarily add fender aprons to the outside of the all-wheel drive system to prevent overheating and additional anomalies due to poor heat dissipation.
warning

Four-wheel drive

  • Regardless of which mode is selected, do not start the vehicle if the front wheels are turned by jacking up or rollers, etc. and only the rear wheels are in contact with the ground.
  • Always use only the designated spare tyre.
  • Tyre chains must be installed on the front wheels only.
  • Do not over-rely on all-wheel drive. Do not drive aggressively in hazardous areas.
warning
  • Always use tyres of the same product, size, and contact surface pattern on all four wheels. Using different sizes of tyres on the front and rear wheels can cause serious damage to the tyres, gearbox, transfer case, and rear differential gears.
