accident by helping to prevent persons
from being thrown from the vehicle. This
also helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors, and
will help keep out intruders.
∙ Before opening any door, always look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and or its systems, including entrap-
ment in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave children,
people who require the assistance of oth-
ers or pets unattended in your vehicle.

WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel whiledriving. You could lose control of your ve-
hicle and cause an accident.
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer to you than is necessary for proper
steering operation and comfort. The
driver’s air bag inflates with great force.
If you are unrestrained, leaning forward,
sitting sideways or out of position in any
way, you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also receive
serious or fatal injuries from the air bag if
you are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback and as
far away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.
TILT AND TELESCOPIC
OPERATION
To adjust the steering wheel move the switch
1in the following directions:
∙ Adjust the steering wheel up or down in direction
2to the desired tilt position.
∙ Adjust the steering wheel forward or backward in direction
3to the desired
telescopic position.
CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and telescop-
ing functions of the steering wheel, after
the vehicle’s battery has been discharged,
may prevent the steering wheel position
from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner:
Both the tilt and telescopic steering opera-
tion must be reset after the vehicle’s battery
has been discharged in order to prevent the
tilt and telescopic operation from locking in
one position. When the battery has been re-
charged or replaced, perform the following: ∙ For tilt operation: Adjust the switch
1so
the steering wheel moves to the highest
position
2that can be reached.
∙ For telescopic operation: Adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to
the most forward and backward position
3that can be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range
of the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic
function.

Vehicle set-up:1. Park the vehicle in a safe and level place.
2. Apply the parking brake and place the shift lever in the P (Park) position.
3. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion. Do not start the engine.
Operation: 1. Add air to the tire.
2. After a few seconds, the hazard indica- tors will start flashing.
3. When the designated pressure is reached, the horn beeps once and the
hazard indicators stop flashing.
4. Perform the above steps for each tire. ∙ If the tire is over-inflated more thanapproximately 4 psi (30 kPa), the horn
beeps and the hazard indicators flash
three times. To correct the pressure,
push the core of the valve stem on the
tire briefly to release pressure. When
the pressure reaches the designated
pressure, the horn beeps once.
∙ If the hazard indicator does not flash within approximately 15 seconds after
starting to inflate the tire, it indicates
that the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indi-
cator is not operating. ∙ The TPMS will not activate the TPMS
with Tire Inflation Indicator under the
following conditions:
– If there is interference from an exter- nal device or transmitter.
– The air pressure from the inflation de- vice is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
– There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
– There is a malfunction in the horn or hazard indicators.
– The identification code of the tire pressure sensor is not registered to
the system.
– The battery of the tire pressure sensor is low.
∙ If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indica- tor does not operate due to TPMS
interference, move the vehicle about
3 ft (1 m) backward or forward and try
again.
If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator is
not working, use a tire pressure gauge.ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
They have higher ground clearance than pas-
senger cars to make them capable of per-
forming in a variety of on-pavement and off-
road applications. This gives them a higher
center of gravity than ordinary vehicles. An
advantage of higher ground clearance is a
better view of the road, allowing you to an-
ticipate problems. However, they are not de-
signed for cornering at the same speeds as
conventional 2-Wheel Drive vehicles any
more than low-slung sports cars are de-
signed to perform satisfactorily under off-
road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp
turns at high speeds. As with other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor-
rectly may result in loss of control or vehicle
rollover. In a rollover crash, an unbelted per-
son is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt.
For additional information, refer to “Driving
safety precautions” in this section.
