Rollover Warning
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles. This vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a higher center of gravity
than many passenger vehicles. It is capable of performing better in a wide variety of off-road applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all vehicles can go
out of control. Because of the higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out of control it may roll over while some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving actions that can cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to operate this
vehicle safely may result in a collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal injury. Drive carefully.Rollover Warning Label
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the US government notes that the universal
use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

Seats should be adjusted before fastening
the seat belts and while the vehicle is
parked. Serious injury or death could result
from a poorly adjusted seat belt.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision you could slide
under the seat belt, which could result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or
impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may
become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat's path.

2. Place the seat belt so that it doesn't impede the movement of the seatback while tilting it. 3. Pull the left-hand seatback release lever
(inside the luggage compartment or the
release at the base of the rear seat acces -
sible from the rear doors) to fold down the left
side, or the right-hand seatback release lever
to fold down the right side of the seatback. It
will fold forwards automatically. If necessary,
assist the seatback during the initial stage of
tilting.

Pull both seatback release levers to fold down
both seatbacks. Tilting the rear seat
completely forward allows for maximum
loading volume.
You may need to move the front seats forward
in order for the rear seats to fold forward
completely.

rear seat. Each lever folds down the section of the
seatback on the same side.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely
locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position the seat will not
provide the proper stability for child seats
and/or passengers. In the event of a collision,
an improperly latched seatback could result in
serious injury or death.
