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.

your vehicle’s drivetrain components. Always inspect
your vehicle’s fluids (i.e., engine oil, transmission,
axle, etc.) for signs of contamination (i.e., fluid that is
milky or foamy in appearance) after driving through

POWER STEERING
The electric power steering system will give you good
vehicle response and increased ease of maneuverability
in tight spaces. The system will vary its assist to provide
light efforts while parking and good feel while driving. If
the electric steering system experiences a fault that
prevents it from providing assist, you will still have the
ability to steer the vehicle manually.
