To activate the four-wheel drive on the Isuzu D-Max, first start the vehicle by inserting the ignition key into the ignition switch: then, put the gear lever in neutral to perform this operation. You will now find a knob on the dashboard to the left of the screen: if the knob is set to 2H, it means that the drive will be only front-wheel.

Moving it to 4H or 4L will engage the four-wheel drive; to disengage it, simply return the knob to the 2H position it was initially in.
