TURNING YOUR VEHICLE
The vehicle is easier to steer in two-wheel
drive (2WD) than four-wheel drive (4WD).
Steering takes the most effort in 4WD with the
differential locked (DIFF. LOCK).
It is possible for the vehicle to roll over or go
out of control if you attempt sharp, high-speed
turns. You should also be careful making
sharp turns on rough terrain. Do not attempt
to turn around or make abrupt maneuvers on
slopes.
Position your hands on the steering wheel so
that your thumbs and fingers do not wrap
around the wheel. This is particularly impor-
tant when driving in rough terrain. The front
wheels will move right and left as they re-
spond to the terrain, and this movement will
be felt in the steering wheel. A sudden jolt
could wrench the steering wheel around, and
your thumbs or fingers could be injured if they
are in the way of the steering wheel spokes.
