Engaging Front Gearcase
The Demand 4 Drive switch may be turned on or off while the vehicle
is moving. Initially, the vehicle’s electronic system will not enable the
AWD until the engine RPM is below 3100. Once enabled, the AWD
remains enabled until the Demand 4 Drive switch is turned off. If the
switch is turned off while the front gearcase is moving, it will not
dise ngage until the rear wheels regain traction.
Engage the Demand 4 Drive switch before getting into conditions
where front wheel drive may be needed. If the rear wheels are
spinning, release the throttle before switching to AWD.
