Transfer mode	Selection button	Indicator light	Description
AWD AUTO	-		AWD AUTO is used when driving on roads in normal conditions, roads in urban areas, and on highways. All wheels are in operation when a vehicle travels at a constant speed. Required tractions are applied on front and rear wheels vary depending on road and driving conditions, which will be automatically controlled by the computing system. When the cluster's AWD Auto display mode is selected, the cluster displays the status of how four wheel's traction forces are distributed.
AWD LOCK			The main goal of AWD Lock mode is to allow a driver to maximize the vehicle's traction under extreme driving conditions, such as unpaved off-road, sandy roads, and muddy roads. When AWD Lock mode appears, the cluster does not display the front/rear wheel traction force distribution status. Press the AWD Lock mode switch again to switch back to AWD Auto.

NOTICE

Normal road conditions

Maintain AWD Auto mode when driving on roads in normal conditions.
When driving under normal road conditions (especially when cornering) in AWD Lock mode, a driver may find minor mechanical vibration or noise, which is an extremely normal phenomenon, not a malfunction. When AWD Lock mode is released, such noise or vibration will be immediately gone.

NOTICE

AWD (All Wheel Drive) vehicle must be towed with all wheels off the ground, either on a flatbed tow truck or using dollies.

CAUTION

The AWD vehicle should never be towed with the wheels on the ground. This can cause serious damage to the transmission or the AWD system.
