FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Switches
Differential Switch
Use the differential switch to lock and unlock the rear differential.
Locked Differential: Operate the vehicle with the switch in
the locked position in most conditions.
Unlocked Differential: When the differential is unlocked, the
inside wheel will rotate independently from the outside wheel
during turns. Operate with an unlocked differential only as
needed to protect smooth, level surfaces from tire damage.
Otherwise, move the switch to the locked position. This feature
will function only if the vehicle is in 2X4 mode.
Operating with the differential unlocked ( ) when on sloped, uneven, or loose
terrain could cause loss of control and result in serious injury or death. One rear
wheel may slip and lose traction or may lift up and grab when it touches the
ground again.
DO NOT operate with the differential unlocked ( ) when climbing or
descending hills, when sidehilling, or when operating on uneven, loose, or
slippery terrain such as sand, gravel, ice, snow, obstacles, and water crossings.
Place the differential switch in the locked position and operate in ADC 4X4 or
4X4 on these types of terrain.
