To avoid loss of control or rollover,

be sure to follow all precautions and

recommendations.

Be sure to store cargo properly

and do not exceed your cargo load

limits (see page

and

).

Whenever you drive, make sure

you and your passengers always

wear seat belts.

Keep your speed low, and never

go faster than the conditions allow.

It’s up to you to continually assess

the situation and drive within the

limits.

Your vehicle has been designed

primarily for use on pavement. But

its higher ground clearance and

super handling-all wheel drive

occasionally travel on unpaved roads,

to campgrounds, picnic sites, and

similar locations. It is not designed

for trailblazing, mountain climbing,

or other challenging off-road

activities.

If you decide to drive on unpaved

roads, you will find that it requires

somewhat different driving skills.

Your vehicle will also handle

somewhat differently than it does on

pavement. Be sure to pay extra

attention to the precautions and tips

in this section, and get acquainted

with your vehicle before leaving the

pavement.
