DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Your vehicle can drive through shallow water. Make sure the water is no deeper

water:
1. Check water depth. Never drive
through water that is deeper than
the floor level.
2. After driving through water, test the
brakes. Apply the lightly several
times while driving slowly. The

provide this service. If it’s impossible to bring the vehicle in before starting the
engine, perform the services outlined on page 113, and take the vehicle in for
service at the first opportunity.

and right fields of vision before backing.
