• Do not apply heavy braking force or accelerate
when skidding to prevent loss of control.
• Use 4WD and maintain low speeds on areas
covered with clay, mud, ice or snow to prevent
uncontrolled skidding.
9. Driving through water
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Do not drive through water whenever possible.
• Drive slowly across shallow water and choose
a location to enter and exit the water where the
banks are not too steep or slippery.
• Before entering water, check for rocks, holes
or other obstacles that may cause overturn, or
becoming stuck or submerged.
• Wet brakes may reduce the stopping ability of
the vehicle. After operating in water, always
apply the brakes to dry them out.
• The brake that gets wet may wear out faster.
Check for brake wear more frequently if
operating in water often.
• Never operate the vehicle in the fast flowing
water or in excess of 6 inches (152 mm) in
depth. Tires may float, making it difficult to
maintain control.
(1) Axle cap (A) 6 inches (152 mm)
IMPORTANT :
• Do not drive through water whenever it is
possible. If the alternator drive belt becomes
wet, slippage may occur.
