In 4L mode, this vehicle will start regardless of whether or not the clutch pedal is pressed to the floor. This feature enhances off-road performance by allowing the vehicle to start when in 4L without having to press the clutch pedal.

The “4WD Indicator Light” will illuminate when the transfer case has been shifted into this mode.
