3-44Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
• Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
also not be left alone. They could acci-
dentally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of the
vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause se-
vere or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
• Do not breathe exhaust gases; they con-
tain colorless and odorless carbon mon-
oxide. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or death. •
If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all win-
dows fully open, and have the vehicle in-
spected immediately.
• Do not run the engine in closed spaces
such as a garage.
• Do not park the vehicle with the engine
running for any extended length of time.
• Keep the rear vent windows, liftgates,
doors and trunk lids (if so equipped)
closed while driving, otherwise exhaust
gases could be drawn into the passenger
compartment. If you must drive with one
of these open, follow these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation button
to off and the fan control dial to high
to circulate the air.
• If electrical wiring or other cable connec-
tions must pass to a trailer through the
seal on the liftgate or the body, follow
the manufacturer's recommendation to
prevent carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle.
• The exhaust system and body should be
inspected by a qualified mechanic when-
ever:
a. The vehicle is raised for service. b. You suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering into the passenger
compartment.
c. You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
d. You have had an accident involving damage to the exhaust system, un-
derbody, or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission control
device installed in the exhaust system. Ex-
haust gases in the three-way catalyst are
burned at high temperatures to help reduce
pollutants.
WARNING
• The exhaust gas and the exhaust system
are very hot. Keep people, animals or
flammable materials away from the ex-
haust system components.
• Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry grass,
waste paper or rags. They may ignite and
cause a fire.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
AND DRIVING
5-4Starting and driving

Vehicle set-up:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe and level place.
2. Apply the parking brake and push the parkbutton to engage the P (Park) position.
3. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion. Do not start the engine.
Operation:
1. Add air to the tire.
2. After a few seconds, the hazard indicators will start flashing.
3. When the designated pressure is reached, the horn beeps once and the hazard indi-
cators stop flashing.
4. Perform the above steps for each tire. • If the tire is over-inflated more than ap-proximately 4 psi (30 kPa), the horn
beeps and the hazard indicators flash
three times. To correct the pressure,
push the core of the valve stem on the
tire briefly to release pressure. When the
pressure reaches the designated pres-
sure, the horn beeps once.
• If the hazard indicator does not flash within approximately 15 seconds after
starting to inflate the tire, it indicates
that the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indi-
cator is not operating. • The TPMS will not activate the TPMS
with Tire Inflation Indicator under the
following conditions:– If there is interference from an exter- nal device or transmitter.
– The air pressure from the inflation de- vice is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
– There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
– There is a malfunction in the horn or hazard indicators.
– The identification code of the tire pressure sensor is not registered to
the system.
– The battery of the tire pressure sensor is low.
• If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator does not operate due to TPMS interfer-
ence, move the vehicle about 3 ft (1 m)
backward or forward and try again.
If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator is
not working, use a tire pressure gauge.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
They have higher ground clearance than pas-
senger cars to make them capable of per-
forming in a variety of on-pavement and off-
road applications. This gives them a higher center of gravity than ordinary vehicles. An
advantage of higher ground clearance is a
better view of the road, allowing you to an-
ticipate problems. However, they are not de-
signed for cornering at the same speeds as
conventional 2-Wheel Drive vehicles any
more than low-slung sports cars are de-
signed to perform satisfactorily under off-
road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp
turns at high speeds. As with other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor-
rectly may result in loss 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.
For additional information, see “Driving
safety precautions” (P. 5-10).
