HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Consult the Table of Contents to determine
which section contains the information you
desire.
Since the specification of your vehicle
depends on the items of equipment ordered,
certain descriptions and illustrations may
differ from your vehicle's equipment.
The detailed Index at the back of this User
Guide contains a complete listing of all
subjects.
Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored
labels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information on the symbols used
in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
This vehicle has a higher ground clearanceand 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 when some other
vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu
-
vers, 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 a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

This User Guide contains
WARNINGS against
operating procedures that could result in a
collision, bodily injury and/or death. It also
contains CAUTIONS against procedures that
could result in damage to your vehicle. If you
