General Information
Your vehicle has been designed
primarily for use on pavement. But
its higher ground clearance and
super handling-all wheel drive
(SH-AWD) system allow you to
occasionally travel on unpaved roads,
to campgrounds, picnic sites, and
similar locations. It is not designed
for trailblazing, mountain climbing,
or other challenging off-road
activities.

If you decide to drive on unpaved
roads, you will find that it requires
somewhat different driving skills.
Your vehicle will also handle
somewhat differently than it does on
pavement. So be sure to read this
owner's manual, pay special attention
to the precautions and tips in this
section, and get acquainted with your
vehicle before you leave the
pavement.

Improperly operating this
vehicle on or off pavement can
cause an accident or rollover in
which you and your passengers
could be seriously injured or
killed.

Follow all instructions and
guidelines in this owner's
manual.

Keep your speed low, and
don't drive faster than
conditions permit.

Important Safety Precautions
To avoid loss of control or rollover,
be sure to follow all precautions and
recommendations.

Be sure to store cargo properly,
and do not exceed your vehicle
cargo load limits (see pages

365

and

397

).

Wherever you drive, make sure
you and your passengers always
wear seat belts.

Keep your speed low, and never go
faster than the conditions allow.

It's up to you to continually assess
the situation and drive within the
limits.
