Hazardous Driving - SSANGYONG MUSSO Owner's Manual

HAZARDOUS DRIVING

When hazardous driving is encountered
because of water, snow, ice, mud, sand or
similar hazard, follow these suggestions.
• Drive cautiously and allow extra dis-
tance for braking.
• Avoid sudden movements in braking or
steering.
• When braking depress the brake pedal
with a light up-and-down motion until the
vehicle is stopped.
• If stalled in snow, mud or sand, use 2nd
gear for manual transmission or "WIN-
TER" mode for automatic transmission
and accelerate slowly. Accelerate
slowly to avoid spinning.
• Use sand, rock salt, tyre chains, or
other nonslip material under the rear
wheels to provide traction when stalled
in ice snow or mud.
