FEATURES AND CONTROLS
All Wheel Drive ( AWD) System
Disengaging Wheel Hubs
The hubs normally disengage when operating in reverse. However, one
or both hubs may occasionally remain engaged. If the handlebars pull
to one side, one front hub is engaged. If both hubs are engaged,
steering effort increases but remains balanced from left to right, and
vehicle speed is somewhat restricted.
Disengage the hubs by stopping, shifting to reverse, and backing for a
short distance. Then proceed in forward again.
NOTE: If the hubs remain engaged after following this procedure,
return the vehicle to your dealer for service.
To continue using AWD while operating in reverse, activate both the
override switch and the AWD switch. See page 33.
WARNING
Operating with only one front hub engaged could result in loss of
control, accident, and severe injury or death. When hub
engagement symptoms are present, use the disengaging
procedure before proceeding.
