Repeat this process to get the vehicle to rock back and forth and then hopefully develop enough
forward momentum to get going again.
Once the vehicle is free, switch ASR back on.
WARNING
Make sure there are no people or animals in front of or behind the vehicle, especially when it is
stuck and you are trying to rock it loose.
Stones, brush, pieces of wood, and other objects under the wheels can be thrown at great ve‐
locity when the wheels spin. This can cause serious or even fatal injuries.
If the stuck vehicle suddenly regains traction, it will lurch forward and can run over anybody
who is standing too close to it in the front or in the back.
Driving in steep terrain
Read and follow the introductory information and safety information first⇒ Introduction to the
subject
Driving on slopes
Before driving up or down a slope, get out of the vehicle, explore the terrain, and assess the
situation.
Walk the grade you intend to drive, check the stretch for firmness and obstacles or other hidden
dangers ⇒ .
Find out how the route continues at the end of a steep angle.
If the route is too steep or too uneven or the ground is too loose, do not drive this route. Find an
alternative.
Drive at a slow, constant speed straight up or down a slope.
Never stop or try to turn around on a slope.
Use just as much power as needed to get up the slope. Too much power makes the tires slip,
spin, or lose traction. This can increase your risk of losing control. However, too little power will in‐
crease the likelihood of stalling.
Do not change gears while climbing the slope.
Use the off-road display ⇒Offroad display .
