●In the following situations, the system
may not be able to correctly detect the brightness of the surroundings. This may cause the low beams to remain
on or the high beams to flash or daz- zle pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In such a case, it is necessary to manu-
ally change between the high beams and low beams.• When there are lights similar to head-
lights or tail lights in the surrounding area• When headlights or tail lights of vehi-
cles ahead are turned off, dirty, chang- ing color, or not aimed properly• When the headlights are repeatedly
changing between the high beams and low beams.• When use of the high beams is inap-
propriate or when the high beams may be flashing or dazzling pedestri-ans or other drivers.

ahead • The movement and direction of vehi-cles ahead
• The distance between the vehicle and a vehicle ahead• When a vehicle ahead only has lights
illuminated on one side • When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle

5-5. Driving tips
Specific design characteristics
give it a higher center of gravity
than ordinary passenger cars.
This vehicle design feature
causes this type of vehicle to be
more likely to rollover. Utility
vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other
types of vehicles.
 An advantage of the higher
ground clearance is a better view
of the road allowing you to antici-
pate problems.
 It is not designed for cornering at
the same speeds as ordinary
passenger cars any more than
low-slung sports cars designed
to perform satisfactorily under
off-road conditions. Therefore,
sharp turns at excessive speeds
may cause rollover.
Your vehicle is not designed to be
driven off-road. However, in the
Utility vehicle precau-
tions
This vehicle belongs to the
utility vehicle class, which has
higher ground clearance and
narrower tread in relation to
the height of its center of grav-
ity.
Utility vehicle feature
WARNING
■Utility vehicle precautions
Always observe the following precau-
tions to minimize the risk of death or serious injury or damage to your vehi-cle:
●In a rollover crash, an unbelted per-son is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.
Therefore, the driver and all pas- sengers should always fasten their seat belts.
●Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneu-vers, if at all possible.
Failure to operate this vehicle cor- rectly may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover causing death or
serious injury.
●Loading cargo on the roof luggage
carrier (if equipped) will make the center of the vehicle gravity higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts,
sharp turns, sudden braking or abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle
rollover due to failure to operate this vehicle correctly.
●Always slow down in gusty cross-winds. Because of its profile and higher center of gravity, your vehi-
cle is more sensitive to side winds than an ordinary passenger car. Slowing down will allow you to have
better control.
●Do not drive horizontally across
steep slopes. Driving straight up or straight down is preferred. Your vehicle (or any similar off-road vehi-
cle) can tip over sideways much more easily than forward or back-ward.
