7-6 Your Vehicle
CAUTION :
Do not shift from low to high or vice versa
without coming to a complete stop and
waiting for the engine to return to normal idle
speed. Damage to the engine or drive train
may occur.
TURNING YOUR VEHICLE
The vehicle is easier to steer in two-wheel
drive (2WD) than four-wheel drive (4WD).
Steering takes the most effort in 4WD with
the differential locked (DIFF. LOCK).
It is possible for the vehicle to roll over or go
out of control if you attempt sharp,
high-speed turns. You should also be careful
making sharp turns on rough terrain. Do not
attempt to turn around or make abrupt
maneuvers on slope.
Position your hands on the steering wheel so
that your thumbs and fingers do not wrap
around the wheel. This is particularly
important when driving in rough terrain. The
front wheels will move right and left as they
respond to the terrain, and this movement
will be felt in the steering wheel. A sudden jolt
could wrench the steering wheel around, and
your thumbs or fingers could be injured if
they are in the way of the steering wheel
spokes.
