Some cars, usually intended for use on rough and rugged terrain, are equipped with four-wheel drive, the so-called 4x4 system mentioned above. This, clearly, provides greater traction and stability, for example in the presence of mud, rough roads, and so on. That being said, it is possible that the warning light related to this function may come on, even for a few seconds, possibly due to a loose connection, etc. The video available here suggests a method to turn it off, which is to turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right, while keeping the instrument panel on.
