FEATURES AND CONTROLS All Wheel Drive System The All Wheel Drive system is controlled by the 4X4 switch. ADC 4X4 Mode When the switch is on ADC 4X4, the ADC system allows engine braking to all four wheels when the vehicle descends a hill or 4X4 incline. Always move the 4X4 Switch switch to ADC 4X4 before ascending or descending a hill. See page 46. 4X4 Mode When the switch is on 4X4, the ATV is in 4X4, and the 4X4 indicator light in the instrument cluster will be on. When in 4X4, the demand drive unit will automatically engage any time the rear wheels lose traction. When the rear wheels regain traction, the demand drive unit will automatically disengage. There is no limit to the length of time the vehicle may remain in 4X4. NOTE: The override switch allows activation of 4X4 in reverse if the 4X4 switch is on. See page 34. 2X4 Mode When the switch is on 2X4, the ATV is in two-wheel drive at all times. 44
