This light blinks if the vehicle is driven with tires of differing diameters fitted on the wheels or with an excessively low air pressure in any of the tires .
WARNING
If the AWD warning light flashes , promptly park in a safe location then check whether all four tires are the same diameter and whether any of the tires has a puncture or has lost air pressure for some other reason . Continuing to drive with the AWD warning light flashing can lead to powertrain damage .
NOTE
If the temporary spare tire is used , the AWD warning light may flash . Use of the temporary spare tire should therefore be restricted to the minimum time necessary . Replace the temporary spare tire with a conventional tire as soon as possible .
