Off-road driving

WARNING
Off-road driving can be hazardous!
•
DO NOT take unnecessary risks.
•
Be prepared for emergencies at all
times.
•
Familiarise yourself with the
recommended driving techniques in
order to minimise risks to yourself, your
vehicle AND your passengers.
•
Remove the CD autochanger (if fitted)
before arduous off-road driving.
•
Always wear a seat belt for personal
protection in all off-road driving
conditions.
•
DO NOT drive if the fuel level is low -
undulating ground and steep inclines
could cause fuel starvation to the engine
and consequent damage to the catalytic
converter.
•
Driving 0ff-road with a loaded roof rack
is NOT recommended. If it is necessary
to stow luggage on the roof rack while
driving off-road, all loads MUST be
removed before traversing side slopes.
BASIC OFF-ROAD TECHNIQUES
These basic driving techniques are an
introduction to the art of off-road driving and
do not necessarily provide the information
needed to successfully cope with every single
off-road situation.
We strongly recommend that owners who
intend to drive off-road frequently, should
seek as much additional information and
practical experience as possible.
Gear selection - manual gearbox
Correct gear selection is possibly the single
most important factor for safe and successful
off-road driving. While only experience will tell
you which is the correct gear for any section
of ground, the following basic rules apply:
• NEVER change gear or de-clutch while
negotiating difficult terrain; the drag on the
wheels may cause the vehicle to stop
when the clutch is depressed and
restarting may be difficult.
• Generally, and especially where slippery or
soft ground conditions prevail, the higher
the gear you select the better.
• When descending very steep slopes,
always select first gear in LOW range.
Inexperienced drivers are advised to stop the
vehicle and carefully consider which gear will
be the most appropriate for each manoeuvre
before continuing.
