When the motor vehicle sharply accelerates or brakes, the
wheels could lose the traction to the road which may result in a
road accident. In order to reduce the speed, use the engine braking;
press the brake pedal only when the speed is sufciently reduced.
When driving down a slope, use the engine braking. Avoid the
acceleration of the motor vehicle.
WARNING! In order to ensure the safety of trafc, use the
snow tyres when driving along snowy or icy roads.
Overcome marsh-ridden sections by driving along a straight
line without sharp turns and stops. Drive smoothly and without
jerks. Move with engaged front axle and reduction gear of the
transfer case, using the gear of the gearbox which would provide
a required rim pull without slipping. In order to prevent the wheels
from slipping and loosing adhesion with the turf, turn smoothly
with a great radius, do not reduce the speed. Do not drive along
the track made by the motor vehicle moving ahead.
When overcoming sandy soils, drive smoothly without
jerks and stops. Turn smoothly and with a great radius. Switch
on the highest possible gear and engage the front axle, in order
to overcome the sand drifts and short sand upgrades in a rush.
Avoid the slipping of the wheels. Determine the road conditions
preliminarily and switch on a required gear which would provide
a required rim pull.
Overcome a ford with great care. The motor vehicle can over-
come a ford of a 500 mm depth with a hard bottom at low speed.
Before overcoming a ford, check its bottom. Make sure that there
are no deep pits, big stones, swampy grounds, choose and check
the ground where the motor vehicle will enter the water and go
out of the water, switch off the fog lamps.
Overcome a ford slowly, without making waves in front of the
motor vehicle, in the rst or second gear of the gearbox, engaging
the front axle and the reduction gear of the transfer case.
Avoid maneuvering and sharp turns.
