Precautions While Driving
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
To prevent rollovers or loss of control:
• Take corne

• Av
oid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers whenever possible.
•Do
not modify your vehicle in any way that you would raise the center of gravity.
•Never
carry more than 165 lbs (75 kg ) of cargo on the roof rack (Honda

Avoid driving in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the engine,
driv
