NOTICE TO UTILITY VEHICLE AND TRUCK OWNERS

Utility vehicles and trucks handle
differently than passenger cars in
the various driving conditions that
are encountered on streets,
highways and off-road. Utility
vehicles and trucks are not designed
for cornering at speeds as high as
passenger cars any more than
low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily under
off-road conditions.

WARNING:

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover

rate than other types of vehicles. To reduce the risk of serious

injury or death from a rollover or other crash you must:

Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers;

Drive at safe speeds for the conditions;

Keep tires properly inflated;

Never overload or improperly load your vehicle; and

Make sure every passenger is properly restrained.

WARNING:

In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is

significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.

All occupants must wear seat belts and children/infants must use
appropriate restraints to minimize the risk of injury or ejection.

Study your “Owner’s Manual” and any supplements for specific
information about equipment features, instructions for safe driving and
additional precautions to reduce the risk of an accident or serious injury.
