Driving On Sandy Or Slushy Road

As the vehicle is intended for on-road use, long time driving on a sandy or slushy road must be avoided. When the vehicle is driven on a sandy or slushy road for a long time, the fail-safe function of the electronic control AWD system tends to enter the protective control mode which switches the control from AWD to FWD gradually in order to protect the drive system, and the indicators ("AWD" and "LOCK") tends to illuminate.
