vehicle; wash the vehicle thoroughly as soonas possible after such use.
Climbing/descending sharp
grades
Your vehicle may not provide sufficient hill
climbing ability and engine braking on steep slopes. Avoid driving on steep slopes even
though the vehicle is a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
Driving through water
E00618900106
If the electrical circuits become wet, further operation of the vehicle will be impossible;
therefore, avoid driving through water unless absolutely necessary. If driving through wa-ter is unavoidable, use the following proce-
dure:

Check the depth of the water and the terrain before attempting to drive through it. Driveslowly to avoid creating excessive water
splashing.
CAUTIONl Never drive through water that is deep
enough to cover wheel hubs, axles or ex-
haust pipe. Do not change the gearshift lever position ( M/T) or the selector lever position
(A/T or CVT) while driving through water.
Frequent driving through water can adverse-
ly affect the life span of the vehicle; we rec- ommend you to take the necessary measuresto prepare, inspect, and repair the vehicle.
l After driving through water, apply the
brakes to be sure they are functioning prop- erly. If the brakes are wet and not function-
ing properly, dry them out by driving slowly
while lightly depressing the brake pedal. In- spect each part of the vehicle carefully.Inspection and maintenance
following rough roadoperation E00606700338
After operating the vehicle in rough road
conditions, be sure to perform the following inspection and maintenance procedures:
l Check that the vehicle has not been dam-
aged by rocks, gravel, etc.
l Carefully wash the vehicle with water.

l After driving through water, check the
engine, transmission and differential oil. If the oil or grease is milky or cloudy be-
cause of water contamination, it must be
replaced with new oil or grease.
l Check the inside of the vehicle. If water
entry is found, dry the carpet etc.
l Inspect the headlamps, If the headlamp
bulb is flooded with water, we recom- mend you to have it drained.Cautions on handling of 4-
wheel drive vehicles E00606802085
Tyres and wheels

4 wheels, the driving performance of the ve- hicle when operating in 4-wheel drive is
greatly affected by the condition of the tyres.
