traction  is required,  such  as,  when
driving  on  slippery,  muddy,  wet, or
snow-covered roads. These vehicles
are not designed  for challenging off-
road  use.  Occasional  off-road  use
such as  established  unpaved roads
and trails are OK. It is  always impor-
tant when  traveling  off-highway that
the   driver   carefully    reduces   the
speed to a level that does not exceed
the  safe  operating speed  for  those
conditions. In  general, off-road  con-
ditions   provide   less   traction   and
braking  effectiveness   than  normal
road conditions.  The driver  must be
especially  alert  to  avoid  driving  on
slopes which tilt the  vehicle to either
side.
This vehicle is  designed prima-
rily for  on road  use although  it
can operate effectively off road.
However, it was not designed to
drive   in  challenging    off-road
conditions.   Driving   in  condi-
tions  that exceed  the  vehicle's
intended design  or the  driver's
experience  level  may  result  in
severe injury or death.
When   turning    sharply   on   a
paved  road at  low speed  while
in   four-wheel   drive,   steering
control will be difficult.
Tight corner brake  effect is a unique
characteristic   of   four-wheel   drive
vehicles caused  by the difference  in
tire  rotation at  the  four wheels  and
the  zero-degree   alignment   of  the
front wheels and suspension.
