ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (IF EQUIPPED)
Engine power can be delivered to the
Tight corner brake effect
WARNING - Off road
front  and rear  wheels for  maximum
traction. AWD  is  useful  when  extra
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.

CAUTION - AWD
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 all  wheel drive, steering con-
trol will be difficult.
Tight corner brake  effect is a unique
characteristic of all-wheel drive  vehi-
cles caused  by the difference  in tire
rotation at the four wheels.
Sharp turns at low speeds should be
carried out with caution.
These factors must be carefully  con-
off-road.
sidered
when
driving
Keeping  the vehicle  in  contact with
the driving surface and under control
in these conditions is  always the dri-
ver's  responsibility for  the  safety  of
him/herself  and  his or  her  passen-
gers.
