234 Driving and Driving Safety
When driving on slopes with soft sand on vehicles
with Tiptronic S:
f Use the manual select mode M in addition to
the Low Range program.
If your vehicle becomes stuck nevertheless:
f Do not spin the wheels. Instead, use branches,
mats or similar items to provide adequate trac-
tion so that you can drive out of the critical ar-
ea.
Track ruts
Other vehicles leave ruts in many off-road courses
or gravel roads.
f Pay attention to the ground clearance of the
car.
Please observe the chapter “GROUND CLEA-
RANCE” on Page 409.
Caution!
Risk of damage to the vehicle floor when
driving through ruts that are too deep.
f Always bear in mind the car's ground clear-
ance.
f Do not drive over ruts that are too deep.
Note on operation
f Activate the Low Range program and engage
differential locks if necessary.
Tips on driving
f In cases of doubt, drive with one wheel on the
strip of grass between the ruts.
f Avoid high engine speeds (max. 2,500 rpm).
f Drive slowly.
