Driving in arduous conditions
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

attention must be paid to servicing
requirements.
•
Keep your hands and clothing away from
drive belts and pulleys.
•
If the vehicle has been driven recently, DO
NOT TOUCH exhaust and cooling system
components until the engine has cooled.
For example: if your vehicle experiences
deep wading conditions, even DAILY
servicing could be necessary to ensure the
continued safe and reliable operation of the
vehicle.

components while the engine is running,
or with the starter switch turned on.
