Starting and operating
cause a braking effect accompanied by
vibration and noise. This does not
indicate a problem. The phenomenon
will disappear when setting the initial
LSD torque to the minimum.
In the auto mode, it controls the initial
LSD torque automatically. While in the
auto mode, this phenomenon sometimes occurs depending on the driving
condition, however, it does not indicate
a problem.
. Use the center differential indicator
light only as a rough indication of the
initial LSD torque.
. If you operate the center differential
control switch while quickly accelerating or turning a tight corner, you may
feel slight shocks. This is due to
differential action by the center differential and does not indicate a problem.
& Temporary release
When the driver stops the vehicle and
pulls the parking brake lever after manually setting the initial LSD torque, the LSD
torque is temporarily minimized. However
the indicator on the combination meter
continues to show the driver’s selected
initial LSD torque. When the driver releases the parking brake lever, the initial
LSD torque set by the driver is restored.
Automatic transmission
The automatic transmission is electronically controlled and provides 4 forward
speeds and 1 reverse speed. Also, it has a
manual mode and a SPORT mode.
