Driving Through Water

OPERATION

Driving Through Water

Your vehicle can operate through water with a maximum recommended depth equal to floor level. Follow these precautions when operating through water:

1. Determine water depth and

current before entering water.

2. Choose a crossing where the

 

Floor Level

water level is lowest and

 

where both banks have grad-

 

ual inclines. Never operate

 

in water that exceeds the

 

maximum recommended depth.

 

WARNING! The large tires on your vehicle may cause the vehicle to float in deep or fast-flowing water, which could result in loss of traction, loss of control, overturn or accident.

3.Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.

NOTICE: Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined in the maintenance chart. See page 69. Give special attention to engine oil, transmission oil, demand drive fluid, rear gearcase oil, and all grease fittings.

If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that exceeds the floor level, take it to your dealer for service before starting the engine. If it's impossible to bring the vehicle to your dealer before starting the engine, perform the service outlined on page 109, and take the vehicle to your dealer at the first opportunity.
