Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” (Electronically controlled 4WD) or “LOCK” accelerator pedal for a
smooth start. Keep the
pressure on the accelera
tor pedal as constant
as possible, and drive at low speed.
Your vehicle may not pr
ovide sufficient hill
climbing ability and e
ngine braking on steep
slope. Avoid driving on steep slopes even though the vehicle is an 4-wheel drive vehi- cle.

If the electrical circuits become wet, furtheroperation of the vehicl
e will be impossible;
therefore, avoid driv
ing through water unless
absolutely necessary. If driving through wateris unavoidable, use th
e following procedure:
Check the depth of the water and the terrain before attempting to drive through it. Drive slowly to avoid creating excessive watersplashing.
Driving on sandy or muddy roads
CAUTION Do not force the vehicle or drive recklessly on sandy surfaces. In comparison with nor-mal road surfaces, th
e engine and other
drive-system components are put under excessive strain when driving on such a sur-face. This could le
ad to accidents.
If any of the following conditions occur while the vehicle is
being driven, immedi-
ately park your vehicle
in a safe place and
follow these procedures:• If the engine coolan
t temperature display
flashes on the information screen in the multi-information di
splay or the engine
power drops suddenly.Refer to “Engine overh
eating” on page 8-4.
• If the “ ” warning
display and “SLOW
DOWN” or the “ ” warning display and “SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in the multi-informationdisplay. Refer to “Warning di
splay” on page 5-70,
5-78.WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck position, be
sure that the area
around the vehicle is clear of people and physical objects. The rocking motion may cause the vehicle to suddenly launch for-ward/backward, caus
ing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.NOTE
Avoid sudden braking,
sudden acceleration
and sharp turning; such operations could result in the vehicle becoming stuck. If the vehicle become
s stuck in sandy or
muddy roads, it can often be moved with arocking motion. Move the selector lever alternately between the

Overuse of the brake can cause weakening, resulting in poor brake response and prema- ture wear of the brake pads. When driving down a long or steep hill, useengine braking
by downshifting.
N00517600364
Your vehicle is equipped with power brakes for more braking force with less brake pedal effort.Your brakes are designed to operate at full capacity, even if the power assist is not being used.If the power assist is not being used, the effort needed to press the brake pedal is greater. If you should lose the power assist for somereason, the brakes will still work. If the power brake unit or either of the two brake hydraulic systems stops working prop-erly, the rest of the brake system will still work, but the vehicle will not slow down as quickly.You will know this has happened if you find you need to press the brake down farther, or harder when slowing down or stopping, or ifthe brake warning light and the warning dis- play in the multi-information display come on.
To w i n g
CAUTION Do not tow 4-wheel drive vehicles with the front or rear wheels on the ground (Type A or Type B) as illustrate
d. This could result in
damage to the drivetrain, or unstable towing.If you tow 4-wheel drive vehicles, use TypeC or Type D equipment. Even in “4WD ECO” (Electronically con- trolled 4WD) or “AWC ECO” (S-AWC) drive mode, the vehicle cannot be towed with the front or the rear wheels on theground.
Jacking up a 4-wheel drive vehicle
WA R N I N G Do not crank the engine while jacking up the vehicle. The tire on the ground may turn and thevehicle may roll off the jack.
Service brake Brake pedal
WA R N I N G Do not leave any objects near the brake pedal or let a floor mat slide under it;doing so could prevent the full pedal stroke that would be necessary in an emergency. Make sure that the pedal canbe operated freely at all times. Make sure the floor mat is securely held in place.
CAUTION It is important not to drive the vehicle with your foot resting on the brake pedal whenbraking is not required.
This practice can
result in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature lining wear, a
nd possible damage to
the brakes.

N00629301092
Your vehicle has been designed for both nor- mal and occasional off-road use. However, avoid driving the vehicle through areas wherethe tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud as your vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle. Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles are less capable than 4-wh
eel drive vehicles for
driving on muddy, slippery, wet or snow-cov- ered roads. Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them toperform in a wide variety of off-road situa- tions. Because of the higher ground clear- ance, these vehicles have a higher center ofgravity, which makes them handle differently than ordinary vehicles when driving on pave- ment. They are not designed to maneuver orcorner 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 satisfactorily in off-road condi- tions.Always drive safely
and steer the vehicle
carefully. Avoid operating the vehicle in a manner that might require sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers. As wi
th other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor- rectly can result in lo
ss 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 seat belts (with children in the rear seat, in appro- priate restraints).
N00628801191
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 a 4-wheel drive vehicle on highways or dry improved roads, set the drive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD), or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S- AW C ) . For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) when traffic, roadway and weather conditions safely 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 engine wastes fuel and costs money. Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
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.
Driving precaution
WA R N I N G Utility vehicles have
a significantly higher
rollover rate than othe
r types of vehicles.
Avoid abrupt maneuvers and excessive speed. Always buckle up.
