Super Handling-All Wheel DriveTM (SH-AWD ) System If equipped The super handling-all wheel drive (SH-AWD) system is a full time allwheel-drive system that automatically controls and transfers varying amounts of engine torque to all wheels independently, according to the driving conditions. While the SH-AWD system helps to enhance the vehicle's driving stability in all situations, it is still your responsibility to drive and corner at reasonable speeds and to leave a sufficient margin of safety. SH-AWD Torque Distribution Monitor TORQUE INDICATOR Each torque indicator is displayed as a bar graph divided into 5 segments. The number of segments represents the amount of torque distributed to each wheel. When there is only a slight change in torque distribution while driving, such as cruising on level roads at the same speed, the torque distribution monitor may stop displaying the amount of torque. This is not a system problem. The monitor will show the amount if the system senses any change in torque distribution. Driving TORQUE INDICATOR U.S. model is shown. The SH-AWD torque distribution monitor on the multi-information display shows you the amount of torque being sent to the wheels. Each wheel right front (RF), left front (LF), right rear (RR), and left rear (LR) has its own torque indicator. 504 2013 TL
