WARNING!

Driving through standing water limits your vehi-

cle’s traction capabilities. Do not exceed 5 mph
(8 km/h) when driving through standing water.

Driving through standing water limits your vehi-

cle’s braking capabilities, which increases stopping
distances. Therefore, after driving through stand-
ing water, drive slowly and lightly press on the
brake pedal several times to dry the brakes.

Failure to follow these warnings may result in

injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your pas-
sengers, and others around you.

CAUTION!

Always check the depth of the standing water

before driving through it. Never drive through
standing water that is deeper than the bottom of
the tire rims mounted on the vehicle.

Determine the condition of the road or the path

that is under water and if there are any obstacles in
the way before driving through the standing water.

Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when driving

through standing water. This will minimize wave
effects.
