SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
•The driver and fron passenger airbag Supplemen al Res rain
Sys em (SRS) is designed only as a supplemen o he primary
pro ec ion of he sea bel sys ems of he driver and fron

o injury if hey do no wear heir sea bel s; when sudden
braking or a collision occurs, hey may be hrown forward. To
ob ain maximum pro ec ion in an acciden , he driver and all
passengers in he vehicle should always wear heir sea bel s
when driving because serious injuries or dea h can resul o

•Never use a rear-facing child res rain sys em in he fron sea
even if he fron passenger airbag manual on-off swi ch or
occupan classifica ion indica or ligh is “OFF.” The force of he
rapid infla ion of he passenger airbag can cause severe injury
or dea h o a child.
•Unless i is unavoidable, do no ins all a forward-facing child
res rain sys em in he fron sea even if he fron passenger
airbag manual on-off swi ch or occupan classifica ion indica or

ei her ask he passenger o move o he rear sea , or if ha is
no possible, move he fron passenger sea fully rearward.
•The SRS side and side cur ain airbags (op ional) are designed o

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differen ly from an
ordinary passenger car because i is also designed for off-road
use. I has a higher ground clearance and higher cen er of
gravi y han an ordinary passenger car. This vehicle design
fea ure causes his ype of vehicle o be more likely o roll
over. U ili y vehicles have a significan ly higher rollover ra e
han o her ypes of vehicles.
An advan age of he higher ground clearance is a be er view
of he road allowing you o an icipa e problems. However, i
is no designed for cornering a he same speeds as ordinary
passenger cars any more han low-slung spor s cars are
designed for off-road use. Therefore, sharp urns a excessive
speeds may cause rollover.
Failure o opera e his vehicle correc ly may resul in loss of
