HOW TO OPERATE
j
Shifting to Locked-Axle Mode
Stop the vehicle completely.
Turn the selectable 2WD/4WD/DIFF-LOCK shift
switch to “DIFF-LOCK” position.
NOTE
This vehicle is equipped with a reduced speed
system for the Locked-Axle Mode. When the ve-
hicle is in the Locked-Axle Mode, the maximum
vehicle speed is limited to 24 km/h (15 mph).
After crossing the obstacle, turn the shift switch to
Differential (Unlocked-Axle) Mode.
WARNING
Shifting to Locked-Axle Mode while turning
or before entering a turn can reduce steering
response, increasing the effort to turn.
An
unexpected
change
in
direction
can
cause the operator to lose control, resulting
in an accident and injury.
Do not shift to Locked-Axle Mode while turn-
ing or before entering a turn.
NOTE
By turning the shift switch to “DIFF-LOCK” po-
sition, driving force to both wheels is equalized
thereby increasing traction. The differential con-
trol is effective only when “4WD” is engaged.
If the meter display does not change when you
want to shift from “4WD” to “DIFF-LOCK,” the elec-
tric shifting mechanism is functioning but the shift-
ing is not completing. Turn the steering wheel left
or right some times to assist the shifting.
Shifting to Differential (Unlocked-Axle) Mode
Stop the vehicle completely.
Turn the selectable 2WD/4WD/DIFF-LOCK shift
switch to “4WD” position.
If the unsuccessful display appears on the multi-
function meter, do one of the following procedures
to cancel the display.
Turn the selectable 2WD/4WD/DIFF-LOCK shift
switch to the original position while stopping the
vehicle.
Turn the ignition switch to “OFF” position while
stopping the vehicle.
If the unsuccessful display cannot be canceled,
the electric shifting mechanism may have a failure.
See an authorized Kawasaki dealer for inspection.
