All values listed are for ideal conditions and assume firm, even surfaces that are dry and not
slippery.

allow an adequate margin of safety between the ideal maximum value and your vehicle's ac‐

Checklist
For your own safety and that of your passengers, carry out each of the following steps in the
order listed before every off-road trip ⇒ :
Inform yourself thoroughly before exploring nature and the terrain you plan to visit.
Fill the fuel tank completely. Off-road driving consumes significantly more fuel than driving on
the road.
Check whether the tires are suitable for the off-road trip you are planning. For difficult terrain,
always use special off-road tires.
Check, and if necessary correct, the cold tire inflation pressure in all tires.
Fill engine oil up to the MAX mark so the engine can be properly lubricated. This is especially
important when driving through potholes and up and down hills.
Completely refill the windshield washer reservoir with water and window washer fluid.
Stow luggage as low and flat as possible in the vehicle. Safely secure all loose objects.
Do not plan extensive day trips. Consider the increased fuel consumption during off-road
driving.
Check the vehicle tool kit. Add tools and other gear based on the special requirements of the
trip you will be taking Vehicle tool kit.
WARNING
Disregarding the safety-related checklist may lead to accidents and serious personal injuries.
