Operator Safety
• Operator and passengers must fasten seatbelt while
the vehicle is in use. Never operate your vehicle in fast-
flowing water or in water deeper than the floorboard. It
may void the warranty. Wet brakes may have reduced
stopping ability. Test your brakes after leaving water.
If necessary, apply them lightly several times to let
friction dry out the pads.
• Check terrain before attempting to climb a hill. Never
climb hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
Never open the throttle suddenly or make sudden gear
changes. Never go over the top of a hill at high speeds.
• Always use the proper size and type of tires specified
in this manual. Always maintain proper tire pressure as
