06 06.02 "4LO" mode (low speed, four−wheel drive, center differential locked) To select this mode, press the "4LO" switch, and then press the center differential lock switch. The "4LO" and the center differential lock indicator lights come on. Use this for maximum power and traction. Use this for hard pulling in situations the vehicle cannot negotiate even in "4LO" (low speed, four−wheel drive, center differential unlocked) mode. Also, using this mode when driving down steep off−road inclines will help contribute to increased vehicle stability. The indicator light tells when the differential lock is engaged. Note that the differential is not still locked as long as the indicator light remains off. When the operation is not completed, the indicator blinks. If the indicator light does not go off when you push out the center differential lock switch, drive straight ahead while accelerating or decelerating, or drive in reverse. If the center differential lock system operation is not completed within 5 seconds while the cruise control system is set, cancel the cruise control system. To cancel the cruise control system, see "Cruise control" on page 207 in Section 1−7. If the indicator blinks even if doing so, contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. There may be a trouble in the center differential lock system. See "(c) Shifting procedure" for further instructions. Advice for driving on slippery roads in "4LO" (low speed, four−wheel drive) mode If you press the "4LO" switch and shift the automatic transmission lever to "2" when you drive in steep off−road areas, the output of the brake can be controlled effectively by the active traction control system, which assists the driver to control the driving power of 4 wheels. Use the "L" position of the automatic transmission for maximum power and traction when your wheels get stuck or when you drive down a steep incline. The output of the brake can be controlled by the active traction control system if the engine speed is under 3000 rpm (normally engine speed is under 3000 rpm when the wheels get unstuck), in the following cases: D The front drive control in "4LO" mode and the automatic transmission in "R" (As for the automatic transmission shift positions, see "Automatic transmission" on page 175 in this Section.) D The front drive control in "4LO" mode and the automatic transmission in "L" or the automatic transmission in "D", "3" or "2" with the transmission downshifting to the first gear 2007 SEQUOIA from Sep.
