Introduction
VEHICLE HANDLING
INSTRUCTIONS
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
No special break-in period is needed. By
following a few simple precautions for the
first 1,000 km (600 miles) you may add to
the  performance,  economy  and   life  of
your vehicle.
As with other vehicles of this type, failure
to  operate   this  vehicle   correctly   may
result  in loss  of  control, an  accident or
vehicle rollover.
Specific  design   characteristics  (higher
ground  clearance,  track,  etc.)  give this
vehicle  a  higher  center  of gravity  than
other  types of  vehicles.  In  other words
they are not designed for cornering at the
same  speeds  as  conventional  2-wheel
drive   vehicles.  Avoid   sharp   turns   or
abrupt maneuvers. Again, failure to oper-
ate  this  vehicle  correctly may  result  in
loss  of  control,  an  accident  or  vehicle
rollover. Be sure to read the “Reducing
the  risk of  a  rollover” driving  guide-
lines, in section 5 of this manual.
•  Do not race the engine.
•  While driving, keep your  engine speed
(rpm,
or   revolutions    per    minute)
between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
•  Do not maintain a single speed for long
periods  of  time,   either  fast  or  slow.
Varying  engine  speed   is  needed  to
properly break-in the engine.
•  Avoid  hard stops, except  in emergen-
cies, to  allow the brakes to  seat prop-
erly.
•  Don't let  the engine idle  longer than 3
minutes at one time.
Don't tow a trailer during the first 2,000
km (1,200 miles) of operation.
