The left-right differential limiting function is
a function that enhances driving performance
and vehicle stability by preventing idle spin-
ning of a wheel when driving on slippery
road or when the road surfaces of left and
right wheels are different.
The yaw control function is a function that
enhances vehicle cornering performance and
vehicle stability with management of vehicle
turning power (yaw moment) by controlling
the braking force when the vehicle does not
turn in response to steering input, such as
when the steering wheel is turned quickly or
when driving on slippery road.

operation, and the driving stability improves
on a wet road surface or a snowy road, etc.
If the 4WD lock switch is pressed once again,
it will return to “NORMAL.”.
When the 4WD LOCK mode is activated, the
above display appears on the information
screen in the multi-information display for
