OPERATION Driving on Slippery Surfaces WARNING Skidding or sliding can cause loss of control or rollover (if tires regain traction unexpectedly). When operating on slippery surfaces such as ice or loose gravel, reduce speed and use extra caution to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of control. Do not operate on excessively slippery surfaces. Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or during freezing weather, follow these precautions: 1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain. 2. Slow down before entering slippery areas. 3. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp turns, which can cause skids. 4. Engage all-wheel drive before wheels begin to lose traction. NOTICE: Severe damage to the drive train may occur if the AWD is engaged while the wheels are spinning. Always allow the wheels to stop spinning before engaging AWD. 5. Correct a skid by turning the steering wheel in the direction of the skid. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Sideways skid Turn in direction of skid 46
