Driving your vehicle
WARNING
Hills
Driving across the contour of steep
hills can be extremely dangerous.
This danger can come from slight
changes in the wheel angle which
can destabilize the vehicle or, even if
the vehicle is maintaining stability
under power, it can lose that stabil-
ity if the vehicle stops its forward
motion. Your vehicle may roll over
without warning and without time
for you to correct a mistake that
could cause serious injury or death.
You must learn how to corner in a
AWD vehicle. Do not rely on your
experience in conventional FWD
vehicles when cornering the vehi-
cle in AWD mode. For starters,
you must drive slower in AWD.
WARNING
All Wheel Drive (AWD)
Reduce speed when you turn cor-
ners. The center of gravity of AWD
vehicles is higher than that of con-
ventional FWD vehicles, making
them more likely to roll over when
you turn corners too fast.

WARNING
Steering wheel
Do not grab the inside of the steer-
ing wheel when you are driving on
unpaved roads. You may hurt your
arm by a sudden steering maneuver
or from steering wheel rebound due
to impact with objects on the
ground. You could lose control of the
steering wheel.
Always hold the steering wheel
firmly when you are driving on
unpaved roads.
Make sure all passengers are
wearing seat belts.
WARNING
Wind danger
If you are driving in heavy wind, the
vehicle's higher center of gravity
decreases your steering control
capacity and requires you to drive
more slowly.
