Observe the following rules when driving along ruts in off-road terrain or on roads with loose gravel:

Check that the ruts are not too deep and that your vehicle has sufficient clearance.

Otherwise, your vehicle could be damaged or bottom out and get stuck.

• select the off-road drive program or the LOW RANGE off-road gear.
• select a higher vehicle level.
• avoid high engine speeds.
• select shift range 1.
• drive slowly.
• where ruts are too deep, drive with the wheels of one side on the center grassy area, if possible.
