Starting and operating/Driver’s Control Center Differential (C.DIFF/DCCD) (STI)

! Center differential control switch
and indicator

The control switch is located beside the
parking brake lever. By pushing the
control switch forward or pulling it rearward, it is possible to change the initial
LSD torque.
The center differential indicator on the
combination meter gives six levels of
indication. The indicator and control
switch are linked; when the switch is
pushed or pulled to change the initial
LSD torque, the indicator changes accordingly.

Push the switch forward to increase the
initial LSD torque; when the “LOCK”
indicator appears, the initial LSD torque
setting is maximum. The center differential
will then be almost completely locked.

Pull the switch rearward to reduce the
initial LSD torque. When the lowest position of the driver’s control center differential indicator is displayed, the initial LSD
torque will be minimum. Under this condition, only the Mechanical LSD torque will
limit the differential action.

CAUTION
. Do not operate the control switch
when a wheel slippage occurs.
Wait until the wheelspin has been
brought under control.
. Under any of the following conditions after setting to the manual mode, pull the center differential control switch to minimize
the initial LSD torque:
