This vehicle has a higherground clearance and a higher center of gravity than manypassenger vehicles. It is capable of performing better in awide variety of off-road applications. Driven in an unsafemanner, all vehicles can go out of control. Because of thehigher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out of control itmay roll over while some other vehicles may not.Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or otherunsafe driving actions that can cause loss of vehicle control.Rollover Warning LabelFailure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided isa major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the U.S.government notes that the universal use of existing seat beltscould cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each yearand could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually.In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly morelikely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckleup.1
