Driving instructions
Driving downhill
ț Drive slowly.
ț Do not drive at an angle to the incline.
Steer into the line of gravity and drive
with the front wheels pointing straight
downhill. Otherwise, the vehicle may
slide sideways off the path and roll
over.
ț Shift automatic transmission to
position 1 (
୴ page 197).
ț On steep inclines, use the Downhill
Speed Regulation (
୴ page 273).
ț Utilize the engine’s braking power to
reduce vehicle speed.
If this is insufficient, apply the brake
gently. Make sure the vehicle is moving
in the line of gravity.
ț Check the brakes after a lengthy down-
grade drive.
Driving through water
1 Fording depth
ț Before driving through water, deter-
mine its depth.

The special Off-road – ABS (୴ page 102)
setting allows for precise and brief (cyclical)
blocking of the front wheels, permitting them to
dig into loose ground.
Remember that, when stopped, the front wheels
slide across a surface and thus lose their ability
to steer the vehicle.

The water depth must not exceed the
respective value listed in the table. The ground
under the water might not be firm which could
result the water being deeper than expected
when driving the vehicle through it. Please note
that the water level is correspondingly lower for
flowing water.
