Loading Your Vehicle for Off-Road
Driving
CAUTION: (Continued)
There are some important things to remember about
how to load your vehicle.
•
Unsecured cargo on the load floor can be
tossed about when driving over rough
terrain. You or your passengers can be
struck by flying objects. Secure the cargo
properly.
Heavy loads on the roof raise the vehicle’s
center of gravity, making it more likely to
roll over. You can be seriously or fatally
injured if the vehicle rolls over. Put heavy
loads inside the cargo area, not on the
roof. Keep cargo in the cargo area as far
forward and low as possible.
•
The heaviest things should be on the load floor and
forward of your rear axle. Put heavier items as far
forward as you can.
•
•
Be sure the load is secured properly, so driving on
the off-road terrain does not toss things around.
{CAUTION:
•
Cargo on the load floor piled higher than
the seatbacks can be thrown forward
during a sudden stop. You or your
passengers could be injured. Keep cargo
below the top of the seatbacks.
You will find other important information in this manual.
