PREPARING TO DRIVE<br />

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than<br />

other types of vehicles.<br />

In a rollover crash, an unb<strong>el</strong>ted person is significantly more lik<strong>el</strong>y<br />

to die than a person wearing a seat b<strong>el</strong>t.<br />

Your vehicle has larger tires and increased ground clearance, giving the<br />

vehicle a higher center of gravity than a passenger car.<br />

Vehicles with a higher center of gravity such as utility and<br />

four-whe<strong>el</strong> drive vehicles handle differently than vehicles with a<br />

lower center of gravity. Utility and four-whe<strong>el</strong> drive vehicles are not<br />

designed for cornering at speeds as high as passenger cars any more<br />

than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under<br />

off-road conditions. Avoid sharp turns, excessive speed and abrupt<br />

maneuvers in these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously could result in<br />

an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal<br />

injury and death.<br />

Loaded vehicles, with a higher center of gravity, may handle<br />

differently than unloaded vehicles. Extra precautions such as<br />

slower speeds and increased stopping distance should be taken when<br />

driving a heavily loaded vehicle.<br />

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OPERATION<br />

Brake-shift interlock<br />

This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents<br />

the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is<br />

in the ON position unless brake pedal is depressed.<br />

If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in<br />

the ON position and the brake pedal depressed:<br />

1. Apply the parking brake, turn ignition key to LOCK, then remove the<br />

key.<br />
