(with deep anti-skidding tread) for
optimum operation performance.

ever-changing road conditions. Damp

―Clean‖ road may be covered with thin
ice.
When the environment
temperature is near freezing point,
driving is very dangerous as the road
may be covered by water and ice
alternatively. As a result, the adhesive
force may change a lot suddenly.
When downshift, take special care. If
the adhesive force is low, the driving
wheels may be locked up for an
instant, which may also cause
skidding.
In overtaking or being overtaken, take
special as the water fog splashed up
by large vehicle may block you view
and the air shock wave caused by
large vehicle may lead to losing
control of the car.
Note: do not drive on a road under
deep water, which may cause
damage or failure of engine and
electrical system.

increase exhaust emission, and long
time driving under this condition may
result in severe damage.
