After driving through mud, clean off residue stuck to rotating

driveshafts, halfshafts and tires. Excess mud stuck on tires and

rotating driveshafts causes an imbalance that could damage drive

components.

NOTE:If the transaxle Power Take Off unit or rear axle are submerged

in water, their fluids should be checked and changed, if necessary.

Water intrusion into the transaxle may damage the transaxle.

NOTE:If the rear axle is submerged in water, the rear axle lubricant

should be checked and changed, if necessary. The rear axle is filled with

a lubricant that does not normally require a lubricant change for the life

of the vehicle. Rear axle lubricant quantities should not need to be

checked unless a leak is suspected.

Driving on hilly or sloping terrain

When driving on a hill, avoid driving crosswise or turning on

steep slopes. You could lose traction and slip sideways. Drive

straight up, straight down or avoid the hill completely. Know the

conditions on the other side of a hill before driving over the

crest.

When climbing a steep hill, start in a lower gear rather than downshifting

to a lower gear from a higher gear once the ascent has started. This

reduces strain on the engine and the possibility of stalling.

When descending a steep hill, avoid sudden braking. Shift to a

lower gear when added engine braking is desired.

When speed control is on and you are driving uphill, your vehicle speed

may drop considerably, especially if you are carrying a heavy load.

If vehicle speed drops more than 16 km/h (10 mph), the speed control

will cancel automatically. Resume speed with accelerator pedal.

If speed control cancels after climbing the hill, reset speed by pressing

and holding the SET ACCEL button (to resume speeds over 50 km/h

[30 mph]).

Automatic transaxles may shift frequently while driving up steep grades.

Eliminate frequent shifting by shifting out of

(Overdrive) into D

(Drive).
