Abrupt maneuvers or aggressive driving, even on flat, open areas, can cause loss of control,
including rollovers. The Viking has higher ground clearance and other features to handle rug-
ged terrain, and, as a result, can overturn in situations where some other vehicles may not.
Avoid rollovers:
• Use care when turning:
• Turning the steering wheel too far or too fast can result in a rollover.
• Avoid sideways sliding, skidding, or fishtailing (rear-wheel sliding), and never do donuts.
• Slow down before entering a turn and avoid hard braking in a turn.
• When making tight turns from a stop or at slow speeds, avoid sudden or hard acceleration.
• Drive straight up and down inclines, not across them. If crossing a hill is unavoidable, drive
slowly and turn downhill immediately if you feel the vehicle may tip.
• Avoid paved surfaces. Turn gradually and go slowly if you must drive on pavement. This
vehicle is designed for off-road use only.
