■

When the center differential lock/unlock switch can be operated

The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.

■

The center differential lock indicator light

●

The indicator light blinks while locking/unlocking the center differential.

●

If the center differential lock indicator light blinks and the buzzer sounds when

the center differential is locked, stop the slipping or spinning and push the

switch again.

If the indicator continue to blink even if doing so, have the vehicle inspected by your

Lexus dealer as soon as possible. There may be a trouble in the four-wheel drive

system.

■

Locking/unlocking the center differential

●

When the four-wheel drive control switch is in L4 with the center differential

locked, VSC is automatically turned off. (The center differential lock and VSC

OFF indicator light will come on.)

●

If the operation is not completed, the center differential lock indicator blinks. If

the indicator light does not turn off when unlocking the center differential, drive

straight ahead while accelerating or decelerating, or drive in reverse.

●

Avoid turning suddenly while the center differential is locked. If you do turn sud-

denly, the difference in turning speeds between the front and rear wheels may

have a similar effect to braking, thus making driving difficult.
