California proposition 65
warning
On-pavement and off-road
driving
This vehicle is classified as a utility vehi-
cle. Utility vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other types of ve-
hicles. Designed not only for on-pavement
use but also for off-road driving, your B9
TRIBECA has a higher ground clearance
and higher center of gravity, making it
more likely to roll over than ordinary pas-
senger cars. It also handles and maneu-
vers differently from other passenger cars.
For this reason, please read carefully the
“On-pavement and off road driving” sec-
tion in chapter 8 of this owner’s manual
and follow the instructions and precau-
tions in order to prevent serious injury or
death due to loss of control, rollover and
other accidents.
Engine exhaust, some of its constit-
uents, and certain vehicle compo-
nents contain or emit chemicals
known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. In addi-
tion, certain fluids in vehicles and
certain components of product wear
contain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause can-
cer and birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm.
