FEATURES AND CONTROLS

All Wheel Drive (AWD) System

Disengaging Wheel Hubs

The hubs normally disengage when operating in reverse. However, one

or both hubs may occasionally remain engaged. If the handlebars pull

to one side, one front hub is engaged. If both hubs are engaged,

steering effort increases but remains balanced from left to right, and

vehicle speed is somewhat restricted.
Disengage the hubs by stopping, shifting to reverse, and backing for a

short distance. Then proceed in forward again.

NOTE: If the hubs remain engaged after following this procedure,

return the vehicle to your dealer for service.

To continue using AWD while operating in reverse, activate both the

override switch and the AWD switch. See page 34.

WARNING

Operating with only one front hub engaged could result in loss of

control, accident, and severe injury or death. When hub

engagement symptoms are present, use the disengaging

procedure before proceeding.
