Precautions for Variable Torque Management 4WD (VTM-4) System

This vehicle is equipped with the Variable Torque Management 4WD (VTM-4) System. The VTM-4 system distributes driving torque between the front and rear wheels when accelerating and when wheel spin occurs.

The VTM-4 system does not have a manual switch to disable the 4WD system. Whenever service work requires spinning the front or rear wheels with the engine, always lift up and support the vehicle so all four wheels are off the ground.
