Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and transmission
overheating, take the following actions:
City Driving
•
In city traffic — while stopped, place the
transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not in-
crease engine idle speed.
Highway Driving
•
Reduce speed.
•
Temporarily turn off air conditioning.
RECREATIONAL TOWING
(BEHIND MOTORHOME, ETC.)
Recreational towing (with all four wheels on the
ground, or using a tow dolly) is NOT ALLOWED.
The only acceptable method for towing this
vehicle (behind another vehicle) is on a vehicle
trailer with all four wheels OFF the ground.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the above
requirements can cause severe transmission
damage. Damage from improper towing is
not covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
DRIVING TIPS
Driving On Slippery Surfaces
Information in this section will aid in safe con-
trolled launches in adverse conditions.
Acceleration
Rapid acceleration on snow covered, wet, or
other slippery surfaces may cause the driving
wheels to pull erratically to the right or left. This
phenomenon occurs when there is a difference
in the surface traction under the rear (driving)
wheels.
WARNING!
Rapid acceleration on slippery surfaces is
dangerous. Unequal traction can cause sud-
den pulling of the rear wheels. You could lose
control of the vehicle and possibly have a
collision. Accelerate slowly and carefully
whenever there is likely to be poor traction
(ice, snow, wet, mud, loose sand, etc.).
Traction
When driving on wet or slushy roads, it is
possible for a wedge of water to build up be-
tween the tire and road surface. This is known
as hydroplaning and may cause partial or com-
plete loss of vehicle control and stopping ability.
To reduce this possibility, the following precau-
tions should be observed:
•
Slow down during rainstorms or when the
roads are slushy.
•
Slow down if the road has standing water or
puddles.
•
Replace tires when tread wear indicators first
become visible.
•
Keep tires properly inflated.
•
Maintain sufficient distance between your ve-
hicle and the vehicle in front of you to avoid a
collision in a sudden stop.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Limited
Slip Differential (LSD) that reduces, but does not
eliminate, the amount of wheel slip across a
given axle for improved handling.
Driving Through Water
Driving through water more than a few inches/
centimeters deep will require extra caution to
ensure safety and prevent damage to your
vehicle.
Flowing/Rising Water
WARNING!
Do not drive on or across a road or path
where water is flowing and/or rising (as in
storm run-off). Flowing water can wear away
the road or path’s surface and cause your
vehicle to sink into deeper water. Further-
more, flowing and/or rising water can carry
