While driving on a surface with reduced traction, try
your best to avoid sudden steering, acceleration,
or braking, including reducing vehicle speed by shifting
to a lower gear. Any sudden changes could cause the
tires to slide. You might not realize the surface is
slippery until the vehicle is skidding. Learn to recognize
warning clues
—
such as enough water, ice, or packed
snow on the road to make a mirrored surface
—
and
slow down when you have any doubt.
Remember: Antilock brakes help avoid only the
braking skid.
Off-Road Driving
The airbag system is designed to work properly under a
wide range of conditions, including off
‐
road usage.
Always wear your safety belt and observe safe driving
speeds, especially on rough terrain.
Drinking and driving can be very dangerous on any
road and this is certainly true for off-road driving. At the
very time you need special alertness and driving skills,
your reflexes, perceptions, and judgment can be
affected by even a small amount of alcohol. You could
have a serious
—
or even fatal
—
accident if you drink
and drive or ride with a driver who has been drinking.
Off-roading can be great fun but has some definite
hazards. The greatest of these is the terrain itself. When
off-road driving, traffic lanes are not marked, curves are
not banked, and there are no road signs. Surfaces can
be slippery, rough, uphill, or downhill.
Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers. Failure to
operate the vehicle correctly off
‐
road could result in loss
of vehicle control or vehicle rollover.
Off-roading involves some new skills. That is why it is
very important that you read these driving tips and
suggestions to help make off-road driving safer and
more enjoyable.
Before You Go Off-Roading

work done.

Make sure there is enough fuel, that fluid levels are
where they should be, and that the spare tire is
fully inflated.

Be sure to read all the information about
four-wheel-drive vehicles in this manual.
.
Make sure any equipment that might be
needed

first aid kit, cell phone, flashlight,
etc.
—
is securely stored in the vehicle.
.
Remove any removable side steps. See
