Manual Initialization

Manual Initialization:
1. Start the engine (the VTM-4 indicator comes on, and the VTM-4 lock switch indicator is off).
2. Apply the brakes, and move the shift lever to either the R, 1, or 2 position, then push the VTM-4 lock switch (the VTM-4 indicator stays on, and the VTM-4 lock switch indicator is on). The 4WD system is now in lock mode.
3. Turn the ignition switch off.





4. Turn the ignition switch ON (II) (the VTM-4 indicator and the VTM-4 lock indicator both come on for 4 seconds, then go off). The VTM-4 control unit is initialized.
