NOTICE
WARNING - Driving
through
WARNING - 4WD driving
Avoid high cornering speed.
•  Do  not  make  quick  steering
wheel   movements,  such   as
sharp  lane  changes   or  fast,
sharp turns.
The risk  of rollover  is greatly
increased  if you  lose  control
of your vehicle at high speed.
In a collision, an unbelted per-
son is significantly  more like-
ly to die compared to a person
wearing a seat belt.
Loss of control often occurs if
two  or more  wheels  drop off
the  roadway   and  the   driver
over   steers  to   re-enter   the
roadway.  In   the  event   your
vehicle leaves the roadway, do
not   steer   sharply.   Instead,
slow   down    before    pulling
back into the travel lanes.
Do not drive in water if the level is
higher than the bottom of the vehi-
cle.
water
Drive  slowly. If  you are  driving
too fast  in water, the  water can
get  into   the  engine   compart-
ment and  wet  the ignition  sys-
tem,  causing   your  vehicle   to
suddenly  stop. If  this  happens
and  your  vehicle  is  in a  tilted
position,  your vehicle  may  roll
over.
Check your  brake condition  once
you are out of mud or water. Press
the  brake  pedal  several times  as
you move slowly until you feel nor-
mal braking forces return.
Shorten  your   scheduled  mainte-
nance interval  if you  drive in off-
road conditions such as sand, mud
or water (see “Maintenance under
severe usage conditions” in section
7).
Always wash your vehicle thor-
oughly after off road use, especial-
ly cleaning the bottom of the  vehi-
cle.
Since the driving  torque is always
applied  to  the  4  wheels  the per-
formance  of  the  4WD  vehicle  is
greatly affected by the condition of
the tires. Be sure to equip the vehi-
cle with four tires of  the same size
and type.
A full time  four wheel  drive vehi-
cle  cannot  be  towed by  an  ordi-
nary  tow  truck.  Make  sure  that
the vehicle  is placed on  a flat bed
truck for moving.
