Notes on driving on salt-treated roads
The braking effect is limited on salt-treated
roads.
Therefore, observe the following notes:
R
due to salt build-up on the brake discs and
brakepads, the braking distance can increase
considerably or result in braking only on one
side
R
maintain a much greater safe distance to the
vehicle in front
To remove salt build-up:
R
brake occasionally while paying attention to
the traffic conditions
R
carefully depress the brake pedal at the end
of the journey and when starting the next
journey
Notes on hydroplaning
Hydroplaning can take place once a certain
amount of water has accumulated on the road
surface.
Observe the following notes during heavy precip‐
itation or in conditions in which hydroplaning
may occur:
R
reduce speed
R
avoid tire ruts
R
avoid sudden steering movements
R
brake carefully
% Also observe the notes on regularly checking
wheels and tires (

page 490).
Notes on driving through water on the road
surface
Water which has entered into the vehicle can
damage the engine, electrics and transmission.
Water can also enter the air intake of the engine
and cause engine damage.
