Before you leave the pavement, be
sure to do all scheduled maintenance
and service and that you inspect your
vehicle. Pay special attention to the
condition of the tires and check the
tire pressure.

After you return to the pavement,
carefully inspect your vehicle to
make sure there is no damage that
could make driving it unsafe.
Recheck the condition of the tires
and the tire pressure.

The route presents limits (too steep
or bumpy roads). You have limits
(driving skill and comfort). And your
vehicle has limits (traction, stability,
and power).

Driving off-highway can be
hazardous if you fail to recognize
limits and take the proper
precautions.

For better traction on all surfaces,
accelerate slowly and gradually build
up speed. If you try to start too fast
on wet soil, mud, snow, or ice, you
might not have enough traction to
get underway and you may dig
yourself a hole. Starting with the
shift lever in second gear (2) will
help you have a smoother start on
snow and ice.

Keep in mind that you will usually
need more time and distance to
brake to a stop on unpaved surfaces.
Avoid hard braking. Do not pump
the brakes; let the anti-lock braking
system pump them for you.

Debris in the road can damage your
suspension or other components.
Because your vehicle has a high
center of gravity, driving over a large
obstacle, or allowing a wheel to drop
into a deep hole can cause your
vehicle to tip or roll over.

If you can’t clearly see all road
conditions or obstacles, walk the
slope before you drive on it. If you
have any doubt whether or not you
can safely drive on the slope, don’t
do it. Find another route.

If you are driving up a hill and find
that you cannot continue,

. Your vehicle could roll

over. Slowly back down the hill,
following the same route you took up
the hill.

do not try to

turn around

Off-Highway Driving Guidelines
