Ruts and gravel roads
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.
- for vehicles with AIRMATIC package: select
an increased 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.
