Exercise extreme caution when
driving up or down steep hills.
The vehicle may flip over
depending on the grade, the ter-
rain, and the trail conditions.
WARNING
Do not drive across the contour
of steep hills. A slight change in
the wheel angle can destabilize
the vehicle, or a stable vehicle
may lose stability if the vehicle
stops its forward motion. Your
vehicle may roll over and lead to
a serious injury or death.
