NOTE Damage caused by water when
fording
Water can enter the engine compartment and
vehicle interior in the following cases:
R
The maximum permissible fording depth is
exceeded when traveling through standing
water.
R
A bow wave forms during fording.
R
Water accumulates when fording.
#
Do not exceed the maximum permissible
fording depth.
#
Drive slowly through water.
#
When driving through owing water, be
aware that the permissible fording depth
is lower due to the accumulation of
water.
The specied value indicates the maximum per-
missible fording depth for vehicles that are ready
to drive. It applies to slow driving through stand-
ing water.
Driving through owing water reduces tire trac-
tion. The permissible fording depth is then corre-
spondingly lower.
Observe the notes on o-road driving and fording
(/ page 132).
