Important Safety Information
There is much that you can do to protect yourself and your
passenger. You'll find many helpful recommendations throughout
this manual. The following are those we consider to be most
important.
Follow Age and Size Recommendations
The driver should be at least 16 years old and tall enough to wear the
seat belt properly and reach all the controls. A passenger should also
be tall enough for the seat belt to fit properly and brace themselves,
if needed, placing both feet firmly on the floor. Never allow anyone
to ride in the middle of the bench seat. There is no seat belt to
restrain them.
Always Wear a Seat Belt
Wearing a seat belt and positioning it properly is your best
protection against injury in a crash or rollover.
Protect Your Head and Eyes
We recommend that occupants always wear a helmet with a chin
strap. We also recommend that you wear eye protection, boots,
gloves, and other protection gear (page 55).
Keep Doors and Side Nets Closed
Making sure the doors are closed and the side nets are secure to help
keep the driver and passenger arms and legs inside the occupant
protective structure (OPS) should the vehicle tip or turn over.
