Driving Instructions

WARNING

• To avoid the risk of rollover when operating a vehicle equipped with mud tires on a paved surface:

reduce speed, use extreme caution, and drive slowly in turns.

• The diameter of all tires on the vehicle must be equal; otherwise the all-wheel drive system will not

operate as intended and could result in severe personal injury or death. Never install tires of different
diameters on the vehicle.

Husqvarna tires are made specifically for the AWD vehicle; therefore, Husqvarna recommends that only tires
purchased from Husqvarna be used on your AWD vehicle.

STOPPING THE VEHICLE

To stop the vehicle, release the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
See following WARNING and CAUTION.

WARNING

• Driving through water may affect the brakes. After driving through water, check effectiveness of the

brakes by gently pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle does not slow down at the normal rate,
continue to press the brake pedal until the brakes dry out and normal performance returns.

CAUTION

• When stopped on a hill, use the brake pedal to hold your position. Do not use the accelerator pedal

to hold position.

After stopping the vehicle, firmly set the park brake. Make sure it is fully engaged. This will prevent the vehicle
