CAUTION!
Be aware that rear fog lights can
bother the drivers following your
vehicle: when visibility is back to
normal, turn off these lights.
Driving in the Mountains
Mountain roads usually have many
narrow turns and curves, tunnels and
steep uphill or downhill slopes: please
consider some advices listed below.
• Drive at a moderate speed, avoid
“cutting” corners.
• When driving inside a tunnel in
daylight turn on the low beams in
advance; avoid high beams and be
aware of the rapid brightness
change. Avoid abrupt maneuvers
that could be dangerous for the
following vehicle.
• Never coast downhill with the engine
off or in neutral.
• Remember that passing other
vehicles when driving uphill is slower
and thus requires more free distance
on the road. If you are being
overtaken on a hill, slow down and
allow the other vehicle to pass.
Driving on Snow or Ice
Please consider some general advice
for driving in these conditions, listed
below.
• Maintain a very moderate speed.
• Fit snow chains or specific tires if the
road is covered with snow: see the
paragraphs “Tires – General
Information” in this section.
• We recommend you to activate the
“I.C.E.” mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” in this section).
• During the winter season, even
apparently dry roads can have icy
sections. Be careful when crossing
bridges, viaducts and roads that have
little exposure to the sun and are
bordered by trees and rocks. They
may be icy.
• Keep an ample safe distance from
the vehicles in front of you.
WARNING!
• Rapid acceleration on slippery
surfaces is dangerous. Unequal
traction can cause sudden pulling of
the driving wheels. You could lose
control of the vehicle and possibly
have a collision. Accelerate slowly
and carefully whenever there is
likely to be poor traction (ice, snow,
wet mud, loose sand, etc.).
• Do not drive on or across a road or
path where water is flowing and/or
rising (as in storm run-off). Flowing
water can wear away the road or
path surface and cause your vehicle
to sink into deeper water.
Furthermore, flowing and/or rising
water can carry your vehicle away
swiftly. Failure to follow this
warning may result in injuries that
are serious or fatal to you, your
passengers, and others around you.
Although your vehicle is capable of
driving through shallow standing
water, consider the following Cautions
and Warnings before doing so.
CAUTION!
• Always check the depth of the
standing water before driving
through it. Never drive through
standing water that is deeper than
47 in (150 mm).
• Determine the condition of the road
or the path that is under water and if
there are any obstacles in the way
before driving through the standing
water.
