'02 Tacoma U (L/O 0109) (a) Front drive control (lever/button type) "N" (neutral position): Lever at "N" No power is delivered to the wheels. The vehicle must be stopped. "L4" (low speed position, four-wheel drive): Lever at "L4" Use this for maximum power and traction. Use "L4" for climbing or descending steep hills, off-road driving, and hard pulling in sand, mud or deep snow. The four-wheel drive indicator light comes on when the "H4", "N" or "L4" mode is selected. Use the front drive control lever and "4WD" button to select the following transfer modes. "H2" (high speed position, two-wheel drive): Lever at "H", "4WD" button left out Use this for normal driving on dry hard- surfaced roads. This position gives greater economy, quietest ride and least wear. "H4" (high speed position, four-wheel drive): Lever at "H", "4WD" button pushed in. Use this for normal driving on wet, icy or snow-covered roads. This position provides greater traction than two-wheel drive. See "(c) Shifting procedure (lever/button type)" for further instructions. (b) A.D.D. (automatic disconnecting differential) The A.D.D. can be engaged or disengaged by the shifting operations described in "(c) Shifting procedure". You should drive in four-wheel drive for at least 16 km (10 miles) each month. This will assure that the front drive components are lubricated. 2002 MY TACOMA_U (OM35786U) 131
