4-1 Main Points of Application
Preventing Water Ingression into Vehicle due to Flood in Rainy Season
Do ascertain the water depth before driving the
vehicle through waterlogging road sections. The
water surface should not be higher than the
lower edge of vehicle body.
If driving through water is unavoidable, turn off
the air conditioner before the vehicle starts to
move, and gently depress the accelerator pedal
to drive the vehicle through waterlogging road
section at a steady and slow speed.
Neither park the vehicle in water, nor shut down the motor in water.
After driving through water smoothly, depress the brake pedal gently and continuously
for several times to remove the water film on brake disc, so that normal brake
performance can be restored as soon as possible.
Any water, slurry or mud in the brake system may cause lag in response of the brake,
which will extend the braking distance. Be careful and do not cause any accident.
Brake the vehicle carefully, dry the wet brake, and remove ice on the brake.
Avoid emergency braking as far as possible after driving the vehicle through
waterlogged road sections.
Avoid ingression of water into the motor. When driving the vehicle on low-lying and
waterlogged road surfaces, prevent water from entering the motor. Otherwise, the
motor will be damaged seriously. Fault or damage of the vehicle arising from failure to
observe this instruction will not be covered by warranty.
After the vehicle is driven through waterlogging road sections, vehicle components,
such as drivetrain system, driving system and automotive electric system, may also
be damaged seriously. Fault or damage of the vehicle arising from failure to observe
this instruction will not be covered by warranty.
