Driving Your Vehicle
ś
Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
ś
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
ś
ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
ś
Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.
ś
Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
ś
The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
ś
Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
ś
In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.

Genesis Branded Vehicle
recommends you to follow all posted
speed limits.
