Introduction Risk of burns when parking or stopping vehicle
Risk of burns when parking or
stopping vehicle
僅 Do not park or stop the vehicle near
flammable items such as leaves,
paper, oil, and tyre. Such items placed
near the exhaust system can become
a fire hazard.
僅 When an engine idles at a high speed
with the rear side of the vehicle touch
-
ing the wall, heat of the exhaust gas
can cause discolouration or fire. Keep
enough space between the rear part
of the vehicle and the wall.
僅 Be sure not to touch the exhaust/cata
-
lytic systems whilst engine is running
or right after the engine is turned off.
There is a risk of burns since the sys
-
tems are extremely hot.
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
vehicle 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 vehicles.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt manoeu
-
vres. Again, failure to operate this vehi
-
cle correctly may result in loss of control,
an accident or vehicle rollover.
Be sure to read the "Reducing the risk
of a rollover" on page 6-186.
