Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them to perform in a wide variety of off-road situa-tions. Because of the higher ground clear- ance, these vehicles have a higher center of gravity, which makes them handle differentlythan ordinary vehicles when driving on pave- ment. They are not designed to maneuver or corner at the same speed on pavement as con-ventional 2-wheel driv
e passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform sati
sfactorily in off-road condi-
tions. Always drive safely and steer the vehicle carefully. Avoid operati
ng the vehicle in a
manner that might require sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As w
ith other vehicles of
this type, failure to ope
rate this vehicle cor-
rectly can result in loss of control or vehicle rollover. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is sig-nificantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Be
fore starting the vehi-
cle, always make cert
ain that you and all your
passengers are properly wearing their seatbelts (with children in the rear seat, in appro- priate restraints).

Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig- nificant effect on your fuel consumption. Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below. Whenever accelerating from a stop, always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
When parked for even a short period, do not idle the engine. Shut it off. Plan your trips to avoid unnecessary stops. Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures. When driving on highways or dry improved roads, set the drive mode-selec-tor “4WD ECO”, “4WD AUTO” or “AWC ECO”, “NORMAL” position (if so equipped). For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) when traffic, roadway and weather conditionssafely permit.
Keep your air filter clean and your vehicle lubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual. Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained enginewastes fuel and costs money. Never overload your vehicle.

Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non- drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or use public transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober. Similarly, prescription and nonprescription drugs affect your aler
tness, perception and
reaction time. Consul
t with your doctor or
pharmacist before dr
iving while under the
influence of any of these medications.
