Before driving the vehicle

Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen. Pour
●
warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away the water imme-
diately to prevent it from freezing.
To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan, remove any
●
snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in front of the windshield.
Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accumulated on
●
the exterior lights, vehicle' s roof, chassis, around the tires or on the brakes.
Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before getting in the
●

When driving the vehicle
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle
ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road conditions.

The parking brake may freeze up, preventing it from being released. If necessary,
block the wheels to prevent inadvertent sliding or creeping.
