Driving in water Driving in water means that the car is driven through deep water on a water-covered road-way. Driving in water must be carried out withgreat caution.

During driving in water, maintain a low speed and do not stop the car. When the water has beenpassed, depress the brake pedal lightly andcheck that full brake function is achieved. Waterand mud for example can make the brake liningswet resulting in delayed brake function.
• If necessary, clean the contacts for the elec-tric heater and trailer coupling after driving inwater and mud.
• Do not let the car stand with water over thesills for any long period of time - this couldcause electrical malfunctions.
