Observe the water depth before wading. If the water level reaches two-thirds of the bumper or tire, it is dangerous to wade. Try to avoid it and don't force it through.

If you must wade, first check all the parts, raise the suspension and slow down.

When wading, you should drive at a low speed and at a constant speed to avoid the splash from the engine room or chassis entering the cab. Don't stop, don't shift gears, and don't let go of the throttle. You should pass at a constant speed in low gear.

If the engine is turned off during wading, it cannot be started again.

After wading, the brake is lightly braked several times continuously, so that the moisture on the brake pad is volatilized through friction heat, and the braking performance is not affected. There is only one final principle for all wading vehicles. Once you can't drive or leave the water, abandon the car immediately. If the vehicle is soaked, it can be repaired. You can buy insurance.
