Driving off-road with truck and utility vehicles

Four–wheel drive vehicles are specially equipped for driving on sand,
snow, mud and rough terrain and have operating characteristics that are
somewhat different from conventional vehicles, both on and off the road.

The AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC stability enhancement system can be turned

off manually by pressing the AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC button (refer to

AdvanceTrac

with Roll Stability Control (RSC) Stability

Enhancement System in this chapter) while operating in 2H, A4WD or
4H while driving in deep sand, very deep snow or more strenuous
off-road maneuvers. This will disable the engine management feature,
allowing the vehicle to maintain full power and enhanced momentum
through the obstacle.
