Do not recline the seatback as thiscan cause the occupant to slideunder the safety belt, resulting inserious injury in the event of a crash.
Do not place objects higher than theseatback to reduce the risk of seriousinjury in the event of a crash or duringheavy braking.
When you use them properly, the seat,head restraint, safety belt and airbags willprovide optimum protection in the eventof a crash.
We recommend that you follow theseguidelines:
•Sit in an upright position with the baseof your spine as far back as possible.
•Do not recline the seatback more than30 degrees.
•Adjust the head restraint so that thetop of it is level with the top of yourhead and as far forward as possible.Make sure that you remaincomfortable.
•Keep sufficient distance betweenyourself and the steering wheel. Werecommend a minimum of 10 in(25 cm) between your breastbone andthe airbag cover.
•Hold the steering wheel with your armsslightly bent.
•Bend your legs slightly so that you canpress the pedals fully.
•Position the shoulder strap of thesafety belt over the center of yourshoulder and position the lap straptightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position iscomfortable and that you can maintain fullcontrol of your vehicle.

Note:Do not use 4H or 4L mode on dry,hard surfaced roads. Doing so will produceexcessive noise, increase tire wear and maydamage drive components. 4H and 4L modeis only intended for consistently slippery orloose surfaces.
Note:If 4L mode is selected while yourvehicle is moving above 3 mph (5 km/h),the 4WD system will not perform a shift.This is normal and should be no reason forconcern. Refer to Shifting to or from 4L forproper operation.
4WD Indicator Lights
The indicator lights illuminate in theinformation display in the reconfigurabletelltale (RTT) location under the followingconditions. See Warning Lamps andIndicators (page 88).
Note:When a 4X4 system fault is present,the system will typically remain in whichever4WD mode was selected prior to the faultcondition occurring. It will not default to 4X2in all circumstances. When this warning isdisplayed, have your vehicle serviced by anauthorized dealer.
4X2
Momentarily illuminates when2H is selected.
4X4 AUTO
