If the vehicle starts to tip, immediately steer in the downhill direction if there are no obstacles in your path. As you regain proper balance, gradually steer again in the direction you want to go. Rough terrain Operation over rough terrain should be done with caution. G Look for and avoid obstacles that could cause damage to the vehicle or could lead to a rollover or accident. G Do not drive in a way that will get the Rhino airborne, as injury, loss of control, and damage to the vehicle could occur. Pavement This vehicle is designed for off-road use only. Avoid paved surfaces. Turn gradually and go slowly if you must drive on pavement. 7-21
