cargo properly.
Heavy loads on the roof raise
the vehicle’s center of gravity,
making it more likely to roll
over. You can be seriously or
fatally injured if the vehicle rolls
over. Put heavy loads inside the
cargo area, not on the roof.
Keep cargo

in this manual. See “Vehicle Loading,”
and “Tires” in the Index.
Traveling to Remote Areas
It makes sense to plan your trip,
especially when going to a remote area.
Know the terrain and plan your route.
You are much less likely to get bad
surprises. Get accurate maps
of trails
and terrain.
Try to learn of any blocked
or closed roads.
It’s also
a good idea to travel with at
least one other vehicle.
If something
happens to one of them,
the other can
help quickly. Does
your vehicle have a winch? If
so,
be sure to read the winch instructions.
In a remote area, a winch can be handy
if you get stuck. But you’ll want to
know how to use it properly.
