After Off-Road Driving
Remove any brush or debris that has collected on
the underbody, chassis, or under the hood.
These accumulations can be a fire hazard.
After operation in mud or sand, have the brake
linings cleaned and checked. These substances
can cause glazing and uneven braking. Check the
body structure, steering, suspension, wheels,
tires, and exhaust system for damage. Also, check
the fuel lines and cooling system for any leakage.
Your vehicle will require more frequent service
due to off-road use. Refer to the Maintenance
Schedule for additional information.
Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than day driving.
One reason is that some drivers are likely to
be impaired — by alcohol or drugs, with night
vision problems, or by fatigue.
Here are some tips on night driving.
•
Drive defensively.
•
Do not drink and drive.
•
Adjust the inside rearview mirror to reduce the
glare from headlamps behind you.
•
Since you cannot see as well, you may need
to slow down and keep more space between
you and other vehicles.
•
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads.
Your vehicle’s headlamps can light up only so
much road ahead.
•
In remote areas, watch for animals.
•
If you are tired, pull off the road in a safe
place and rest.
