CAUTION
Off-road vehicle precautions
■
Always observe the following precautions to minimize the risk of death or serious
injury or damage to your vehicle:
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a
●
person wearing a seat belt. Therefore, the driver and all passengers should fasten
their seat belts whenever the vehicle is moving.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers, if at all possible.
●
Failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle roll-
over causing death or serious injury.
Loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier will make the center of the vehicle
●
gravity higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or
abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover
due to failure to operate this vehicle correctly.
Always slow down in gusty crosswinds. Because of its profile and higher center of
●
gravity, your vehicle is more sensitive to side winds than an ordinary passenger
car. Slowing down will allow you to have better control.
Do not drive horizontally across steep slopes. Driving straight up or straight down
●
is preferred. Your vehicle (or any similar off-road vehicle) can tip over sideways
much more easily than forward or backward.
Off-road driving
When driving your vehicle off-road, please observe the following precau-
tions to ensure your driving enjoyment and to help prevent the closure of
areas to off-road vehicles.
● Drive your vehicle only in areas where off-road vehicles are permitted
to travel.
● Respect private property. Get owner' s permission before entering pri-
vate property.
● Do not enter areas that are closed. Honor gates, barriers and signs
that restrict travel.
