Safety Warnings
Crossing Hillsides
Driving on a sidehill is not recommended. Improper procedure could cause loss
of control or rollover. Avoid crossing the side of any hill unless absolutely
necessary.
If crossing a hillside is unavoidable, always follow proper procedures as
described in this owner's manual. See page 60.
Stalling While Climbing a Hill
Stalling or rolling backwards while climbing a
hill could cause a rollover. Maintain a steady
speed when climbing a hill.
If you lose all forward speed:
Apply the brakes gradually until the vehicle is
fully stopped. Place the transmission in
reverse and slowly allow the vehicle to roll
straight downhill while applying light brake
pressure to control speed.
Operating in Unfamiliar Terrain
Failure to use extra caution when operating on
unfamiliar terrain could result in an accident or
rollover.
Unfamiliar terrain may contain hidden rocks,
bumps, or holes that could cause loss of
control or rollover.
Travel slowly and use extra caution when
operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always be
alert to changing terrain conditions.
