All-Wheel Drive (AWD) (if so equipped)
WARNING
• For AWD equipped vehicles, do not
attempt to raise two wheels off the
ground and shift the transmission to
any drive or reverse position with
the engine running. Doing so may
result in drivetrain damage or unexpected
vehicle movement which
could result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
• Do not attempt to test an AWD
equipped vehicle on a 2-wheel dynamometer
(such as the dynamometers
used by some states for
emissions testing) or similar equipment
even if the other two wheels
are raised off the ground. Make sure
that you inform the test facility
personnel that your vehicle is
equipped with AWD before it is
placed on a dynamometer. Using
the wrong test equipment may result
in drivetrain damage or unexpected
vehicle movement which
could result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
