• Only right or left exte
rior light of a vehicle
in front or oncoming
vehicle is illuminat-
ing. • A vehicle in front or
oncoming vehicle is a
motorcycle. • Road conditions (gradient, bends and road surface). • The number of occupants and luggage load.  The automatic high beam system recognises environmental conditi
ons by sensing a light
source ahead of your vehicle. Therefore, youmay feel like someth
ing is not quite right
when the headlight beams are switched auto- matically.  The system may not de
tect a light vehicle
such as a bicycle.  The system may not detect an ambient brightness precisely. Th
is causes the traffic
to be dazzled by high beam or the low beam to be maintained. In such cases, you should switch the headli
ght beams manually.
• In bad weather (heavy
rain, fog, snow or
sandstorm). • The windshield is dirty or fogged up. • The windshield is cracked or broken. • The sensor is deformed or dirty.• A light, which is similar to the headlights or tail lights, is shining around your vehicle. • A vehicle in front
or oncoming vehicle is
driven without lights,
the exterior lights are
dirty or discoloured, or the direction of the headlight beams is ad
justed improperly.
NOTE
• It becomes dark and bright suddenly and continuously around your vehicle. • Your vehicle is driv
en on uneven surfaces.

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.
