150 Driving and Operating
If the standing water is not too deep, drive
through it slowly. At faster speeds, water
can get into the engine and cause it to stall.
Stalling can occur if the exhaust pipe is
under water.
Do not turn off the ignition when driving
through water. If the exhaust pipe is under
water, the engine will not start.
Always drive in the direction of waves.
Avoid oncoming vehicles as they will
increase the water depth hitting your
vehicle.
Be aware of submerged obstacles as they
can damage your vehicle or cause loss of
control.
Never open the vehicle doors while in the
water.
When going through water, the brakes get
wet and it may take longer to stop. After
exiting the water, repeatedly and gently
apply the brakes to dry them off and
restore effectiveness. See Driving on Wet
