Skidding and slipping
Take the following measures when the vehicle starts skidding or slipping when driving
on sand, ice, mud, or water:
●
Turn steering wheel towards the sliding direction.
●
Do not brake as long as the vehicle is slipping.
●
When the vehicle stops sliding: stop and switch four-wheel drive on.
6.7.6
Crossing stretches of water
●
Avoid fast-flowing rivers. As the vehicle tyres have buoyancy, the vehicle may
suddenly start floating.
●
Check depth and current of the stretch of water before driving through it. When
doing this, also look for boulders, tree trunks, and other hidden obstacles.
●
Check if you will be able to leave the stretch of water again on the other side.
●
Cross the stretch of water slowly but keep sufficient momentum.
●
Brake after crossing the water and check if the brakes are functioning.
WARNING
When crossing stretches of water, the water may only reach up the vehicle's
floor.
ATTENTION
If water that is deeper than allowed has been crossed, the vehicle shall be
checked in an authorised Arctic Cat specialist repair shop.
NOTE
Engine damage caused by penetrating water are not covered by the Arctic
Cat warranty.
