gent Key to the vehicle when the power
source is turned on from off or during the
Exit function.
. When any of the memory switches are
pushed while the automatic drive posi-

reaches the designated pressure, 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 Tire Inflation Indicator is not
operating.
. The TPMS will not activate the Tire
Inflation Indicator under the following
conditions:
— If there is interference from an ex- ternal device or transmitter
— The air pressure from the inflation device such as those using a power
socket is not sufficient to inflate the
tire
— If an electrical equipment is being used in or near the vehicle
— There is a malfunction in the TPMS system
— There is a malfunction in the horn or hazard indicators
. If the Tire Inflation Indicator does not
operate due to TPMS interference, move
the vehicle about 3 ft (1m) backward or
forward and try again.
If the Tire Inflation Indicator is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge.AVOIDING COLLISION AND
ROLLOVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe
and prudent manner may result in loss of
control or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times.
Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive
speed, high speed cornering, or sudden
steering maneuvers, because these driving
practices could cause you to lose control of
your vehicle. As with any vehicle, a loss of
control could result in a collision with other
vehicles or objects, or cause the vehicle to
rollover, particularly if the loss of control
causes the vehicle to slide sideways. Be
attentive at all times, and avoid driving when
tired. Never drive when under the influence
of alcohol or drugs (including prescription or
over-the-counter drugs which may cause
drowsiness). Always wear your seat belt as
outlined in the “Seat belts” (P.1-18), and also
instruct your passengers to do so.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash,
an unbelted or improperly belted person is
significantly more likely to be injured or killed than a person properly wearing a seat
belt.
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
passenger cars to make them capable of
performing in a variety of on-pavement and
off-road applications. This gives them a
higher center of gravity than ordinary cars.
An advantage of higher ground clearance is
a better view of the road, allowing you to
anticipate problems. However, they are not
designed for cornering at the same speeds as
conventional passenger cars any more than
low-slung sports cars are designed to per-
form satisfactorily under off-road condi-
tions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt maneuvers, particularly at high
speeds. As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or vehicle rollover.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted or improperly belted person is
significantly more likely to be injured or killed
than a person properly wearing a seat belt.
Be sure to read “Driving safety precautions”
(P.5-10).
