僅 Driving In Flooded Areas; 僅 Driving Off-Road - Kia Cerato 2022 Owner's Manual

Driving your vehicle
can cause a skid and possibly lead to
an accident. Be sure your tyres are in
good shape.
僅 Turn on your headlights to make it
easier for others to see you.
僅 Driving too fast through large puddles
can affect your brakes. If you must go
through puddles, try to drive through
them slowly.
僅 If you believe you may have gotten
your brakes wet, apply them lightly
whilst driving until normal braking
operation returns.
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
affected.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times whilst the vehicle is moving slowly.
Driving off-road
Drive carefully off-road because your
vehicle may be damaged by rocks of
roots of trees. Become familiar with the
off-road conditions where you are going
to drive before you begin driving.

Tyres
OBD051046R
Adjust the tyre inflation pressures to
specification. Low tyre inflation pres-
sures will result in overheating and pos-
sible failure of the tyres.
Avoid using worn or damaged tyres
which may result in reduced traction or
tyre failure.
NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tyre infla-
tion pressure shown on the tyres.
WARNING
Underinflated or overinflated tyres can
cause poor handling, loss of vehicle con-
trol, and sudden tyre failure leading to
accidents, injuries, and even death.
Always check tyres for proper inflation
before driving. For proper tyre pres-
sures, refer to "Tyres and wheels" on
page 8-55.
