Driving over obstacles
!
Obstacles could damage the floor of the
vehicle or components of the chassis. Ask
passengers for guidance when driving over
large obstacles. The passenger should
always keep a safe distance from the
vehicle when doing so in order to avoid
injury as a result of unexpected vehicle
movements. After driving off-road or over
obstacles, check the vehicle for possible
damage, especially to the underbody and
the components of the chassis.
Observe the following rules when driving over
tree stumps, large stones and other
obstacles:
R
observe the safety notes (
Y
page 142) and
the general notes (
Y
page 142) on off-road
driving.
R
shift the transfer case to
LOW (
Y
page 126).
R
avoid high engine speeds.
R
select shift range 1 (
Y
page 123).
R
make sure that you have enough ground
clearance before driving across an
obstacle.
R
drive very slowly.
R
try to drive straight over the center of
obstacles: front wheel first, then rear
wheel.
!
Drive with particular care when driving
over an obstacle while driving up or down
a steep slope.
The vehicle could otherwise tilt and slide
sideways or tip over.

R
Observe the safety notes (
Y
page 142) and
the general notes (
Y
page 142) on off-road
driving.
R
Do not drive at an angle on slopes, inclines
or gradients, but instead follow the direct
line of fall. The maximum gradient-climbing
capability of your vehicle is 80%, which
corresponds to an approach/departure
angle of 38°. Note that the vehicle's
gradient-climbing capability depends on
the off-road conditions.
R
Before driving on extreme uphill and
downhill gradients, shift the transfer case
to
LOW (
Y
page 126).
R
Engage the differential locks, if necessary
(
Y
page 129).
R
Drive slowly.
R
Accelerate gently and make sure that the
wheels are gripping.
R
Avoid high engine speeds, except when
driving on sandy and muddy routes with
high driving resistance.
