Driving through water on roads

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

on

page 32.

Note the following to help prevent vehicle damage when driving through water, for example on flooded
roads:

Check the depth of the water before driving through it. The water must not be any higher than

the bottom of the vehicle body

⇒

.

Do not drive faster than walking speed.
Never stop the vehicle, and do not drive in reverse or switch the engine off when driving through

water.

Oncoming vehicles may create waves that raise the water level and make it too deep for your

vehicle to drive through safely.

WARNING

After driving through water, mud, sludge, etc., the brakes react slower and need longer stop-
ping distances.

Always dry the brakes and clean off any ice coatings with a few careful applications of the

brake. Make sure not to endanger other motorists or cyclists or disobey legal requirements.

Avoid abrupt or sudden braking maneuvers immediately after driving through water.

NOTICE

Vehicle components such as the engine, transmission, suspension or electrical system may

be severely damaged by driving through water.

Never drive through salt water. Salt causes vehicle corrosion. Thoroughly rinse with fresh

water all vehicle parts that were exposed to salt water.
