Good braking practices
WARNING
•Whenever you leave or park yourvehicle, always set the parkingbrake as far as possible and fullyengage the vehicle's transaxle intothe P (Park) position. If the parkingbrake is not fully engaged, the ve‐hicle may move inadvertently andinjure yourself and others.
•All vehicles should always have theparking brake fully engaged whenparking to avoid inadvertentmovement of the vehicle whichcan injure occupants or pedes‐trians.

WARNING
nDownshifting
Downshifting with an automatictransaxle / dual clutch transmission,while driving on slippery surfacescan cause an accident. The suddenchange in tire speed could cause thetires to skid. Be careful when down‐shifting on slippery surfaces.
Rocking the vehicle
Iý it is nücüssary to rock thü vühiclü to
ýrüü it ýrom snow, sand, or mud, ýirst turn thü stüürinþ whüül riþht and lüýt

CAUTION
Prolonged rocking may cause engineover-heating, transaxle damage orfailure, and tire damage.
WARNING
nSpinning tires
Do not spin the wheels, especially atspeeds more than 56 km/h(35 mph). Spinning the wheels athigh speeds when the vehicle is sta‐tionary could cause a tire to over‐heat which could result in tire dam‐age that may injure bystanders.

(Continued)
(Continued)
•The battery must be removedfrom the vehicle and placed in anarea with good ventilation.
•Do not allow cigarettes, sparks, orflame near the battery.
•Watch the battery during charg‐ing, and stop or reduce the charg‐ing rate if the battery cells begingassing (boiling) violently or if thetemperature of the electrolyte ofany cell exceeds 49 °C (120°F).
•Wear eye protection when check‐ing the battery during charging.
•Disconnect the battery charger inthe following order.1.Turn off the battery chargermain switch.
2.Unhook the negative clampfrom the negative battery ter‐minal.
3.Unhook the positive clamp fromthe positive battery terminal.
•Before performing maintenance orrecharging the battery, turn off allaccessories and stop the engine.

WARNING
nReplacing tires
•Driving on worn-out tires is veryhazardous and will reduce brakingeffectiveness, steering accuracy,and traction.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Your vehicle is equipped with tiresdesigned to provide for safe rideand handling capability. Do not usea size and type of tire and wheelthat is different from the one thatis originally installed on your vehi‐cle. It can affect the safety andperformance of your vehicle,which could lead to handling failureor rollover and serious injury.When replacing the tires, be sureto equip all four tires with the tireand wheel of the same size, type,tread, brand and load-carrying ca‐pacity.
•The use of any other tire size ortype may seriously affect ride,handling, ground clearance, stop‐ping distance, body to tire clear‐ance, snow tire clearance, andspeedometer reliability.
•It is best to replace all four tires atthe same time. If that is not possi‐ble, or necessary, then replace thetwo front or two rear tires as apair. Replacing just one tire can se‐riously affect your vehicle’s han‐dling.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•The ABS works by comparing thespeed of the wheels. Tire size canaffect wheel speed. When replac‐ing tires, all 4 tires must use thesame size originally supplied withthe vehicle. Using tires of a differ‐ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Elec‐tronic Stability Control) to work ir‐regularly.
