STEERING

To prevent damage to the power steering system:

• Never hold the steering wheel at its furthest turning points (until it

stops) for more than a few seconds when the engine is running.

• Do not operate the vehicle with a low power steering pump fluid level

(below the MIN mark on the reservoir). Refer to Checking and

adding power steering power fluid in the Maintenance and

Specifications chapter for information on checking and filling the

power steering fluid reservoir.

If the power steering system breaks down (or if the engine is turned

off), you can steer the vehicle manually, but it takes more effort.

If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:

• an improperly inflated tire

• uneven tire wear

• loose or worn suspension components

• loose or worn steering components

• improper steering alignment

A high crown in the road or high crosswinds may also make the steering

seem to wander/pull.

LIMITED-SLIP AXLE

This axle provides added traction on slippery surfaces, particularly when

one wheel is on a poor traction surface. Under normal conditions, the

limited slip axle functions like a standard rear axle.

Extended use of other than the manufacturer’s specified size tires on a

limited slip rear axle could result in a permanent reduction in

effectiveness. This loss of effectiveness does not affect normal driving

and should not be noticeable to the driver.

PREPARING TO DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE

Your vehicle has special design features, such as a decreased ground

clearance; care should be taken when driving your vehicle near curbs,

speed bumps and parking lot bump-stops.

Use extra caution while becoming familiar with your vehicle. Know the

capabilities and limitations of both you as a driver and your vehicle.
