      1. Multi-terrain Select Control


        • Some operating conditions have been changed for the multi-terrain select so that it can be used while the CRAWL control is activated. The CRAWL control is activated when the accelerator pedal is released and the multi-terrain select is activated in the "AUTO" mode when the accelerator pedal is depressed.

        • When the CRAWL control is deactivated, one of the 5 road modes of "MUD & SAND" "LOOSE ROCK" "MOGUL" "ROCK & DIRT" and "ROCK" can be selected with the mode selector switch.

        • The "AUTO" mode will be selected automatically when the CRAWL control is activated.
