FOLDING WINDSHIELD

The fold-down windshield and removable side bars on
your vehicle are structural elements that can provide some
protection in some accidents. The windshield also provides
some protection against weather, road debris and intrusion
of small branches and other objects.
Do not drive your vehicle on-road with the windshield
down and the side bars removed as you lose the protection
these structural elements can provide.
If required for certain off-road uses, the side bars can be
removed and the windshield folded down. However, the
protection afforded by these features is then lost. If you
remove the side bars and fold down the windshield, drive
slowly and cautiously. It is recommended that the speed of
the vehicle be limited to 10 mph (16 km/h), with low range
operation preferred if you are driving off-road with the
windshield folded down.
Raise the windshield and reinstall the side bars as soon as
the task that required their removal is completed and
before you return to on-road driving. Both you and your
passenger should wear seat belts at all times, on-road and
off-road, regardless of whether the windshield is raised or
folded down.
