DRIVING TIPS
DRIVING ON A SLIPPERY ROAD
Driving on a Slippery
Road Surface
Although your vehicle is equipped with
many traction enhancing features, the
most effective action is to adapt your
speed to the present driving conditions.
Differential Lock
On an extremely slippery surface, you
can engage the differential lock so that
the wheels drive at the same speed.
Drive carefully when you have the
differential lock engaged. Do not forget
to disengage it when you leave the
slippery area. If you drive with the
differential lock engaged on rm ground
you risk damaging the driven axles and
wheels.
Weight Distributed over Drive
Axle
For a better grip on slippery road
surfaces you can temporarily redistribute
the weight on the driving axle.
