emissions regulations.
In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from any modification

VEHICLE HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result
in loss of control, an accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (higher ground clearance, track, etc.) give this vehi-
cle a higher centre of gravity than other types of vehicles. In other words they are
not designed for cornering at the same speeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehi-
cles. Avoid sharp turns or abrupt manoeuvres. Again, failure to operate this vehicle
correctly may result in loss of control, an accident or vehicle rollover. Be sure to
read the “Reducing the risk of a rollover” driving guidelines, in section 6 of this
manual.
