To reduce the risk of loss of control and serious personal injury, never use the cruise control
when driving off-road. Cruise control is designed for highway use. It is completely unsuitable
for off-road situations and can even be dangerous when used off-road.
NOTE
Always make sure the vehicle has enough ground clearance. Severe damage to the underbody
can occur if the vehicle bottoms out. The damage could disable the vehicle and leave you
stranded.
Rollover warning
Read and follow the introductory information and safety information first Introduction to the
subject
A vehicle's center of gravity affects its rollover characteristics. Since vehicle has higher ground
clearance for off-road driving, its center of gravity is also higher than that of standard passenger cars.
The higher center of gravity increases the risk of vehicle rollover while driving. Always keep this in
mind when driving. Heed the safety information and warnings in this Manual Safety notes when
driving off-road .
WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing
a safety belt.
Your vehicle has a higher center of gravity and an increased risk of rollover while driving than a
standard passenger vehicle that is not suitable for occasional off-road use.
Never drive too fast, particularly through curves, and never attempt extreme driving
maneuvers.
Always adjust your speed and driving style to road, terrain, traffic, and weather conditions.
Transporting luggage or other objects on top of your vehicle raises the center of gravity and
can further increase the risk of rollover.
Always avoid driving crosswise on a slope.
