OPERATION
Driving Safely
Driving Through Water
CAUTION
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after
operation in water . Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart.
If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the footpeg
level, take it to your dealer for service before starting the engine.
NOTE: Avoid operating the vehicle through deep or fast-flowing water. If you cannot
avoid water that exceeds the recommended maximum depth, go slowly, balance
your weight carefully, avoid sudden movements, and maintain a slow and steady
forward motion. Do not make sudden turns or stops, and do not make sudden
throttle changes.
If your vehicle becomes immersed, and it’s impossible to take it to a dealer before starting
it, follow the steps described on page 130. Have the vehicle serviced by your dealer at the
first opportunity.
